There are 56 possible sets of 3 choices that can be formed by selecting from the 8 choices. Of these, 4 sets were considered thoroughly, comparing against the 16 nearby (similar) sets that differ in just one choice.
This is the voting preference matrix, reporting maximal valid proportional preferences. Fractional digits indicate nonproportional preferences, which help break ties in proportional preference.

You can compare any two sets of choices. Just enter the numbers of the choices (from 1 to 8) in each set, with the numbers of one set's choices in the left column and the numbers of the other's in the right column.
The following gives the details of how the poll would have resulted if run on single choices, without proportional representation. This hypothetical poll defines the “individual preference order” used above.
