“…Herzberg and Wilson (1988) note that the lack of support for sophisticated voting in the earlier studies was probably at least partly due to the di¢ culty or impossibility of calculating optimal sophisticated strategies because preferences were not common knowledge. Besides this, even if preferences were common knowledge, the strategies used by other voters may be di¢ cult to predict as well.…”

“…112 Goeree and Yariv (2011) …nd that their three di¤erent voting rules produce very similar outcomes, suggesting that there is some deeper equilibrium selection criterion that applies to all voting rules with unrestricted communication. To the extent that these information aggregation problems are largely common-value coordination games, then e¢ ciency seems like a natural selection criterion that would apply with roughly equal force to all these voting games with communication.…”

“…Aufgrund der Resultate aus der experimentellen Forschung bezweifeln zudem verschiedene Autoren, dass selbst bei offengelegten Informationen strategisches Verhalten häufig auftritt (Herzberg and Wilson 1988;Wilson and Pearson 1987;Cohen, Levine and Plott 1978;Eckel and Holt 1989). Auch Weisberg und Niemi gehen von einer geringen Wahrscheinlichkeit strategischer Einflussnahme in legislativen Entscheidungsprozessen aus:…”

“…Nevertheless there also exists important experimental evidence showing that certain mechanisms may be difficult to manipulate due to their complexity. 9 Experiments typically confirm that as the voting space enlarges to include more projects or more voters, the computational difficulty of sophisticated voting increases.…”
