Answer
Since Candidate A received the most points using the Borda count method, Candidate A is the winner.
Work Step by Step
With the Borda count method, each candidate receives 1 point for each last place vote, 2 points for each second-to-last-place vote, and so on. The candidate with the most points is declared the winner.
We can find the total points for each candidate.
Candidate A:
4(240) + 3(60) + 2(0) + 1(160) = 1300 points
Candidate B:
4(0) + 3(240 + 160) + 2(0) + 1(60) = 1260 points
Candidate C:
4(160) + 3(0) + 2(240 + 60) + 1(0) = 1240 points
Candidate D:
4(60) + 3(0) + 2(160) + 1(240) = 800 points
Since Candidate A received the most points using the Borda count method, Candidate A is the winner.
