论文摘要
从社会选择理论的角度来看,2022年8月的美国众议院特别选举包含了许多有趣的特征。这次选举使用即时的径流投票(通常称为排名选择投票)选举赢家,而这种投票方法的许多弱点在这次选举中都在展出。例如,Condorcet的冠军与即时径流冠军不同,选举表现出单调悖论。选举还表现出一个没有表演的悖论。据我们所知,这次选举代表了美国排名选择选举的第一个文件,证明了这一悖论。
The August 2022 Alaska Special Election for US House contained many interesting features from the perspective of social choice theory. This election used instant runoff voting (often referred to as ranked choice voting) to elect a winner, and many of the weaknesses of this voting method were on display in this election. For example, the Condorcet winner is different from the instant runoff winner, and the election demonstrated a monotonicity paradox. The election also demonstrated a no show paradox; as far as we are aware, this election represents the first document American ranked choice election to demonstrate this paradox.
