Approval Voting proposes a compelling way to elect some 500,000 officials in public elections. Under this system, voters may vote for, or approve of, as many candidates as they like in multi-candidate elections. Among the many benefits of approval voting are its propensity to elect the majority candidate (rather than the strongest minority candidate, as often occurs under plurality voting), its relative invulnerability to insincere or strategic voting, and a probable increase in voter turnout, since it would offer voters the opportunity to influence election outcomes more equitably.
