Solution

The Plurality Method uses only the first row of information in the preference schedule (corresponding to first place votes).All of the other information in the preference schedule is irrelevant.

Total number of voters = 47

Theme E got votes = 19+1 =20

Theme F got votes = 12+6 =18

Theme S got votes = 6+3 =9

Thus by the plurality method,

Theme E is selected which got more number of seats than other themes.
