I have to second David here. Look at this example:

\version "2.19.49"
<<
  { c' c'' c' }
  \\
  { e' e' e' }
>>

Even though most of the notes are lower, the first voice is still the 
first voice, as becomes clear from stem directions and note column 
displacement. You constantly confuse ‘order of notes’ with ‘order of 
voices’.
