Quizplus · Accepted Answer

A Condorcet winner is a candidate who would win in a head-to-head competition against every other candidate. In this case, there is no candidate who beats every other candidate in a one-on-one competition. For example, Candidate A beats Candidate B and C, but loses to Candidate D. Candidate D beats A, B, and C, but loses to Candidate B in a head-to-head competition. Therefore, there is no Condorcet winner.
