Approval Voting proposes a compelling way to elect some 500,000
officials in public elections. Under this system voters may vote
for, or approve of, as many candidates as they like in
multicandidate elections. Among the many benefits of approval
voting are its propensity to elect the majority candidate (rather
than the strongest minority candidate, as often occurs under
plurality voting), its relative invulnerability to insincere or
strategic voting, andby offering voters the opportunity to
influence election outcomes more equitablya probable increase in
voter turnout. Since the publication of the first edition of this
book, its arguments in favor of an election reform practically
unknown in 1983 have stood the test of time. Perhaps the proof of
the pudding lies in the adoption of approval voting by about a
dozen professional societiesseveral with tens of thousands of
membersand their generally favorable experience with it.
