Who will vote quadratically? : voter turnout and votes cast under quadratic voting
Kaplow, Louis; Kominers, Scott Duke - 2016
Who will vote quadratically in large-N elections under quadratic voting (QV)? First, who will vote? Although the core QV literature assumes that everyone votes, turnout is endogenous. Drawing on other work, we consider the representativeness of endogenously determined turnout under QV. Second,...

On the representativeness of voter turnout
Kaplow, Louis; Kominers, Scott Duke - 2020
Prominent theory research on voting uses models in which expected pivotality drives voters' turnout decisions and hence … individuals turn out for reasons unrelated to pivotality, and their votes overwhelm the forces analyzed in pivotality-based models …. Accordingly, we examine a complementary model of large-N elections at the opposite end of the spectrum, where pivotality effects …

The Brennan-Lomasky test of expressive voting : when impressive probability differences are meaningless
Clark, Jeff Ray; Lee, Dwight R. - In: Economies : open access journal 6 (2018) 3, pp. 1-6
We consider a test of expressive voting developed by Brennan and Lomasky (1993). They point out that in presidential elections the probability of a tie, and casting a decisive vote, increases “multi-billionfold” as the election becomes increasingly close. They conjecture that if voters are...
