Solve the below problem:
Q: A three-person committee has to choose a winner for a national art prize. After some debate, there are three candidates still under consideration: a woman who draws antelope in urban set- tings, a man who makes rectangular lead boxes, and a woman who sculpts charcoal. Let's call these candidates a, b and c; and call the committee members 1, 2 and 3. The preferences of the committee members are as follows: member 1 prefers a to b and b to c; member 2 prefers c to a and a to b; and member 3 prefers b to c and c to a. The rules of the competition say that, if they disagree, they should vote (secret ballot, one member one vote) and that, if and only if the vote is tied, the winner will be the candidate for whom member 1 voted. Thus, it might seem that member 1 has an advantage.
(a) Consider this voting game. Each voter has three strategies: a, b, or c. For each voter, which strategies are weakly or strictly dominated?
(b) Now consider the reduced game in which all weakly and strictly dominated strategies have been removed. For each voter, which strategies are now weakly or strictly dominated? What is the predicted outcome of the vote? Compare this outcome to voter 1's preferences and comment.
