Question

An election is held among four candidates (A, B, C, and D). Using a voting method we will call the "Yoshida Method ", the winner of the election is candidate A. Due to an irregularity in the original vote count a new election must be held. In the new election nearly everyone resubmitted the same preferences. There were three voters, whoever, who changed their ballots. In the original election they voted "D first, then A second, then B third, then C last," but in the second election they promoted A to vote "A first, D second, B third, C last."
