Sort bar chart by summarized (ranked) responses
Link to sample file below.
EDIT: the solution below works for this data set but it does not work on the real report. I am afraid I simplified the model too much. Does anyone else have an idea of how to create a measure that produces this based on the data model below?

Original post:
I am summarizing responses to a survey where respondents rank options. I have created a bar chart that shows the number of responses by their rank, and now I would like to sort the chart so the option that people chose as #1 is at the top, etc., but I can't figure out how to do this. It needs to be dynamic so it will respond to slicers on the page.
My idea was to create a measure to put in the chart's tooltip so I can then sort on it, but I cannot figure out the logic for that measure. I am able to create a table variable which has the summary data (below), but the rest is beyond me... Any ideas?
THANKS!
In the sample file, the Y-axis should be sorted in the following order
- Blue (most responses as 1st choice)
- Yellow (most responses as 2nd choice)
- Orange (etc.)
- Red
