final decision is made by majority vote
judge verdicts (2)
- groundedness 1.00 pass — The claim is directly supported by the passage, which explicitly states 'final decision is made by majority vote' in reference to the entire board of arbitrators making their determination when disputants do not accept the initial arbitrators' findings.
- qualifier_fidelity 0.90 pass — The claim is largely faithful to the passage. The quote is verbatim and the predicate/object are accurate. However, the 'viewpoint' qualifier should be 'passage' or 'author' rather than unattributed - the passage does not attribute this statement to a named source, so 'author' is acceptable here. The minor issue is that the claim does not fully capture the procedural context: the final decision by majority vote applies specifically when 'the disputants do not change the grading to come within the arbitrators' findings' - this conditional context is omitted from the claim. All other qualifiers (stance, sentiment, time, context) are faithful. The quote supports the claim accurately.
