"Draw two cladograms, both showing the traits, and leave it as a hypothesis."

Reason: A cladogram is a testable hypothesis of relationships based on shared derived characters. If the data support more than one equally good arrangement, you present the alternative cladograms with their character mappings — not by voting — and treat them as hypotheses to be tested with more data.
