    The withdraw trick is useless in a real election.  The candidates are still
    there as far as the AV is concerned.  If you have a voter doodle in the
    space where the ovals for these candidates would have been, you are going to
    get unexpected restuls.

    Do it properly using full face fix columns and your problems will disapear.
    This was explained weeks ago.
