Which Election System is Best: A Comprehensive Comparison of World Wide Election Systems - Paperback

by Stephen H. Sosnick (Author)

This book examines 22 real-world election systems, identifies current users, and contrasts the outcomes across the many different systems. Only by taking the time to fully understand the types of systems can one indeed determine "Which Election System is Best."The reader may be surprised to find that the type of election system chosen will determine the election results, and that there is no single election system that is universally optimal. Simply put: a different winner will occur under different systems with the exact same votes cast. It is therefore paramount to understand how each system functions and to learn how the outcomes will be affected when choosing the type of election system to be used.
