wrong. a cast vote for candidate 3 is not a lost vote for candidate B. Furthermore variable b decreasing doesn’t increase the total of variable t so no you can’t “rewrite” it like that with magic math. This is how it works, it’s actually very simple:
candidate T gets t votes
candidate B gets b votes
candidate X gets x votes
how does any of that make them “bourgeoisie” or the “privileged elite”? Nations have different political systems, you shouldn’t expect them all to be organized like the corrupt American system unless you are an imperialist. And it’s particularly offensive to want to impose American political values on Cuba, a former American colony who righteously broke free of those chains.
