Product Voting (PRO-V) is a [[Single Member system|Single-Winner]] [[Cardinal voting systems]] developed by [[User:Aldo Tragni|Aldo Tragni]].
The objectives of this voting system is the balance between simplicity, resistance to strategies, elect utilitarian winner and provide the voter with a good representation of interests (range with

===Product===
Line 28:
n = total number of votes.
If you have '''paper ballots''' then, before counting, you can eliminate ratings
Eg given these 3 votes:
A[
A['''3'''] B[5] C[1] D[
A[5] B['''3'''] C[
delete the ratings
B[
B[5]
A[5] C[
so there is less multiplication to do.
===Name derivation===
PRO-nV: the PRO-V procedure works with ranges of different sizes and n indicates the amount of ratings used in the range.
*PRO-2V: uses ratings in [1,2].
*PRO-V: is the default definition, with ratings in [1,5].
*FAIR-9V: uses ratings in [1,9].
==Voting systems comparison==
===[[FAIR-V]]===
The proportional ratings of the PRO-V make the intermediate ratings more used by the voter, because eg. adding these two votes A[1] B[2] (B is worth double A) and A[4] B[2] (A is worth double B), candidates A and B are equal, unlike the methods that add up the scores. A single point can make a lot of difference. Taking this characteristic of the PRO-V into consideration, and following the analysis of the [[FAIR-V#Strategies_resistance|resistance to strategies in FAIR-V]], it can be seen that PRO-V is also resistant to strategies, but not as strong as FAIR-V which uses a range [0,2].
However, the PRO-V procedure is easier to understand than the FAIR-V one, and also offers a wider range of ratings to the voter.
