But in most Participation failure examples I've seen, the same candidate is not the winner in both sets. For example, for MCA:
5 A>B>C 4 B>C>A
add in: 2 C>A>B
The winner of the two sets of votes are A and C. Combined, the winner is B.
What method did you use to determine that:
5:A>B>C 4:B>C>A 2:C>A>B
was B?
Whether you add in those last two votes are not, I compute the winner to be A under RP(wv) (http://www.ericgorr.net/condorcet/).
