B. The method considers only the first-choice line and the second-choice line.
Correct Answer Is:
C. The method looks only at the first-choice line.
My apologies for the mistake. The correct answer is indeed C. The plurality method looks only at the first-choice line and does not consider subsequent choices, which can be a limitation as it may not accurately reflect the overall preferences of voters. Thank you for pointing out the error.
