Should one candidate receive a majority of first-preference votes, that individual is declared the winner in the race. However, if no candidate wins a majority of first-preference votes, the candidate with the fewest first-preference votes is eliminated. Following the elimination of the candidate who received the least amount of first-preference votes, voters&#8217; second-preference choices are evaluated and a new tally is established to determine whether a candidate in the race has received a majority of the vote. That process is repeated until a candidate wins a majority of the vote.<\/p>\n<p><i>Fox News&#8217; Lawrence Richard contributed to this report.<\/i><\/p>\n<div class=\"article-meta\">\n<div class=\"author-bio\">\n<p>Kyle Morris covers politics for Fox News.
