4. Let’s imagine that there is a cake contest between East and West High School. The school with the best cake wins a $1,000 prize from Northampton County. The contest has 2 stages.
-1st Stage: Bakers at both high schools compete within their school to find the BEST cake at West and the BEST cake at East separately. Members of the schools vote for BEST cake at each school. -2nd Stage: The 2 winning cakes (one from West and one from East) compete to find the BEST cake. Members of West and East vote for the winning cake in the county.
Critically thinking: What if all Northampton members could vote for the “best” cake at West during the 1st Stage? HOW could East rig (or mess up) the competition? Think about how they could vote in the 1st Stage to change the setup in the 2nd Stage of the competition!
