We introduce a model with strategic voting in a parliamentary election with proportional representation and uncertainty about voters' preferences. In any equilibrium of the model, most voters only vote for those parties whose positions are extreme. In the resulting parliament, a consensus...

The second one is for approval games under the condition that the number of candidates is equal to three. These results are combined with the analogous one obtained...
