Suppose I want the Green to win. Unless I live in Brighton, that isn't
going to happen. So there's no point in voting for them, I'll vote Tory
(to keep Lab out) or Labour (to keep the Tory out). The two of them
thus get most of the votes between them.

How do you know that everyone doesn't feel the same way?
