Tiffany Bond 5.71% 16,552
Will Hoar 2.37% 6,875
Final result after re-allocation of Hoar then Bond votes:
Jared Golden 50.6 142,440
Bruce Poliquin 49.4 138,931
This means that Golden was the second choice of over 10,000 of the voters while Poliquin was second choice of about 4000. Had only those two been on the ballot, Golden was the preferred choice and he ended up winning. Seems like a good system to me. Obviously some voters did not list a second [or third] choice.

Your use of second bites at the apple is not founded on principles of a Constitutional Republic. Just another tactic to bring in mob rule.
