Radial symmetry, by our definition, is a precise condition on continuous ideal-point distributions, rarely if ever … cycle exists. Radial symmetry precludes the existence of Condorcet cycles and thus guarantees a Condorcet winner; but this … under radial symmetry, if the weighting of issues varies across voters. This finding may be of more than theoretical value …
