| | Voting - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | In politics voting is the method by which the electorate of a democracy appoints representatives in its government. | | | In a voting system that uses a ranked vote, the voter has to rank the alternatives in order of preference. | | | Also, it is often not clear whether the voter really understands how his or her vote is counted in the voting system, especially with the more complex types. |

| | Suffrage - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
| | In the United Kingdom, peers who are members of the House of Lords (all up until reforms in 1999) are also excluded from voting in general elections. | | | It may be surprising that in the US citizens technically lack a constitutional right to vote. | | | Despite the best of universal suffrage, all modern democracies require voters to meet age qualifications to vote and deny the right to vote to individuals below the voting age. |

That, of course, is extremely unlikely. | | | But did you know that only 1,231,944 more Bob Dole voters, carefully apportioned among Nevada, Kentucky, Arizona, Tennessee, New Mexico, Florida, New Hampshire, Delaware, Ohio, and Pennsylvania, would have given their man the election, despite Clinton's lead of 8 million in the popular vote? | | | Suppose we grant to Landsburg that voting carries a certain cost and that your vote should be considered worthwhile only if it decides the election. |
