Favored frontrunner? Trying to add some thought.
Agreed to "first rate a favorite and the worst".
Then the standard thought is "the voter rates the frontrunners".
This needs careful thought. It is likely that one of the frontruners will
win. This voter has two obvious approaches to select from:
IF this voter has a preference, proceed as Abd and others suggest.
BUT if this voter sees them as equally desirable or undesirable, it
is proper to treat them as such.

voter will first rate a favorite and the worst. That's usually fairly
easy! (At least among those the candidate recognizes.) Then the voter
rates the frontrunners.
