The question of what strategy will be used and to what extent is a quite

It's not vanishingly small if you think about it from a team perspective.

I will sketch a proof that, in Schulze beatpaths voting in "random"
N-candidate V-voter elections (V-->infinity, N fixed):
with probability > a positive constant C (where C goes to 1 as N-->infinity):
at least a constant fraction K of the voters (where K goes to 3/4
as N-->infinity)
