For the information design-interested out there, do take a look at
Alameda's presentation of the rounds of IRV (one choice is dropped
each round):

Granted, if you don't know much about IRV/RCV, you might have a hard
time figuring it out... but if you know that it's a round-based voting
mechanism that drops and redistributes votes, it's a remarkably clean
and intuitive presentation. Bravo!
