Pivotality and responsibility attribution in sequential voting
Bartling, Björn; Fischbacher, Urs; Schudy, Simeon - 2015 - Revised version, April 2015
This paper analyzes responsibility attributions for outcomes of collective decision making processes. In particular, we ask if decision makers are blamed for being pivotal if they implement an unpopular outcome in a sequential voting process. We conduct an experimental voting game in which...

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 …

Ambrus, Attila; Greiner, Ben; Zednik, Anita - 2019
We investigate how an explicit blank vote option “None of the above” (NOTA) on the ballot paper affects voting behavior and election results in political elections where non-establishment candidates are on the ballot. We report evidence from two online field experiments conducted in the...
