Your code does not consider person with 0 votes (i.e, not in the first element of each rows combined). They have the least votes and should be removed first, followed by those who have the least votes amongst the voted candidates. (Also, your code is trying to retrieve first element from an empty row that has been removed(ex: [[], ["abc"], ["a", "b"]]), resulting in IndexError)

This is my first feedback. Awesome solution!

smart to use another var to store pos i am 95% close to this one

Oh come on! I solved this in 59 lines of code, ternary operators, a ***** recursion and a bunch of if statements and spend an hour only to see this?

good job tho.

Use spoiler flag next time please.

Nice solution

Why not use a ternary operator to check for the condition, would save you a couple of lines of code and is more readable.

It's very ineffective :(

My god, wonderful solution! Thanks!

nice

hey can you help me ? did you find it whats wrong ?
