Answer:

Explanation:  

1) The ratio of Edwards to Obama = 60% : 40%, that is, 3 : 2

The ratio of Edwards to Clinton = 60% : 40%, that is, 3 : 2

Also, the ratio of Clinton to Obama = 60% : 40%, that is, 3 : 2

From the above statements the ratio of Edwards, Clinton and Obama, should reflect as follow in that order  5 : 4 : 3, showing that it is not possible that all voters are rational.

2) If  the votes were to be 38% Clinton, 32% Obama and 30% Edwards,that is, in a ratio of 19 : 16 : 15 respectively, it is rational based on the preceding illustration, but it could have been higher for Edwards to Clinton becuase Edwards had higher votes when compared to Clinton and Obama seprately.
