Line 1:
[[Consensus Voting]] is another name for [[approval voting]] because approval voting is the simplest voting system that satisfies the [[unanimous consensus criterion]] and the [[greatest possible consensus criterion]].
 
Technically, consensus voting is syntactically identical to [[approval voting]]; however, it is different from [[approval voting]] semantically. Specifically, voters are asked which alternatives they [[consent]] (as opposed to approve with approval voting). This semantic difference is important because it ensures that consensus voting satisfies the [[unanimous consensus criterion]] and [[greatest possible consensus criterion]].
