Given that we have multiple choice, that's just not supportable, Jon. It doesn't matter which book is leading, or by how much, since I'm not wasting a vote. And even if it were true, strategic voting is a valid choice for people to make. (Notice, please, the use of subjunctive mood/case!)

Come on, folks, vote for one (or more) of the trailing books so that we can have a runoff again. I'm thinking a 4 book runoff would be fun.
