Which school should be the winner of the 2015 Build-Ability peoples choice award?

Rotorua Boys High School finished first among 24 options with 298 votes, but its 19.7% share was a plurality, not a mandate. Central Hawkes Bay College followed on 14.1%, with South Otago High School at 11.2%.

The audience split is striking: Rotorua’s vote was 77% male, while Central Hawkes Bay’s was only 29% male. The lead changed once, in the opening stretch, before Rotorua held the top spot through the final stretch.

• Plurality win · Rotorua took 19.7%, leaving more than four-fifths elsewhere.
• Gender divide · Rotorua’s voters were 77% male; Central Hawkes Bay’s were 29% male.
• Single flip · Rotorua moved ahead by day 4 and stayed first thereafter.
