If you voted objectively then that's a good thing. Your friend can be upset bc they're hurt but you did something right.

Both him and the other guy were there, which means he was also elligible for the position. This is an unforgivable breach of the bro code and you shouldn't encourage it

You choose someone based on their skills not because you hang out with them. The other seemed to be slightly better than OP's friend and in competitions a slight difference has always a huge impact. I wouldn't encourage nepotism.

It was a uni society. Obviously you'd pick your friend over someone slightly better. I would encourage being a good friend

My friends are mature enough to understand why I would choose someone more competent than them. Being a good friend would be to tell them straight away the reasons so they can improve.
