Final Answer : B, Explanation :  Voters who prefer $0.0, $0.5, and $1.0 million (1 + 4 + 20 = 25 voters) will likely vote for the $1 million option as it is closer to their preference than the $2.5 million option. Similarly, voters who prefer $1.5 million (22 voters) will also likely choose the $1 million option because it is closer to their preference than the $2.5 million option. Therefore, the total votes for the $1 million spending amount will be 25 (from $0.0, $0.5, and $1.0 million preferences) + 22 (from $1.5 million preference) = 47 votes.
