Abstract: | We give a characterization of majority voting rules with quorums in the framework of May (Econometrica 20:680–684, 1952)’s
seminal article. According to these voting rules, an alternative is socially chosen if and only if it obtains the relative
majority of votes and the total number of voters not abstaining reaches the quorum. |
