Voting by sequential elimination with few voters
2017
Proceedings of the Twenty-Sixth International Joint Conference on Artificial Intelligence
Preserved Fulltext
We define a new class of low-communication voting rules, tailored for contexts with few voters and possibly many candidates. ...
These rules are defined by a predefined sequence of voters: at each stage, the designated voter eliminates a candidate, and the last remaining candidate wins. ...

This setup generates two problems that are affected by the temporal organization of primaries: First, voters in late-voting states can use the results in early elections to update on candidates' valences ...
The advantage of sequential voting is to minimize vote-splitting in late districts; however, coordination may occur on the wrong candidate. ...
In other words, all voters with preferred position θ i = 0 vote for candidate 1, while those voters with θ i = 1 either vote for candidate 2 or 3. 10 This creates a coordination 8 In elections with more ...

Single Transferable Vote (STV) is of particular interest for voting, for cognitive reasons (it is easy to understand) and normative reasons (it is clone-proof). ...
We now define a stronger notion of a necessary loser, which only applies to rules that proceed by sequential elimination: x ∈ A is an immediate loser if we know that x will be the next candidate eliminated ...
