“2nd choice” means every 1st-choice applicant drew and licenses went on to later choices. “Leftover” means licenses remained after the primary draw. The secondary draw (June) also re-offers unpaid and returned licenses; “unsold” ones went to the leftover sale in August. Secondary-draw data starts in 2021. A percentage is the share of applicants at the cutoff level who drew.
