Abstract

Experts have different opinions as to which is the best voting procedure. The Leverhulme Trust sponsored 2010 Voting Power in Practice workshop, held at the Chateau du Baffy, Normandy, from 30 July to 2 August 2010, was organized for the purpose of discussing this matter. Participants of the workshop were specialists in voting procedures and, during the wrap-up session at the end of the workshop, it was decided to organize a vote among the participants to elect “the best voting procedure”. The present paper reports on this vote. It contains in the Appendix statements by some of the voters/participants about this vote and voting rules in general.
