Abstract

During the first round of the French 2012 presidential elections on April 22, voters in three French municipalities were invited to participate in an experiment that tested two plurinominal voting systems. These were approval voting (AV) and three types of evaluation voting (EV). This paper presents the key results of that experiment. After correcting for participation and representation biases, two major insights emerge. First, the AV method results in a ranking of candidates that is different from that of the official, uninominal voting system; and, second, regardless of the scale of scores, the EV method reinforces this difference.
