The Condorcet efficiency of approval voting and the probability of electing the Condorcet loser
Article Abstract:
An analysis of Condorcet efficiency in approval voting reveals that an impartial culture condition for large electorates yields approval voting will greater Condorcet efficiency than plurality rule. The study also reveals that the same culture conditions has a smaller Condorcet efficiency than the voting rule when voters must vote for half of the available alternatives.

The geometry of Black's single peakedness and related conditions
Article Abstract:
Black's single peakedness constraint may describe an election in which one of three candidates is never ranked at the bottom, at the top, or in the middle. Geometric methods are used to analyze the probability of election of three such candidates.
