Every [[weighted positional method]] that gives higher ranked candidates higher scores passes the participation criterion. In particular, [[Plurality voting]] and the [[Borda count]] both pass. Furthermore, [[Approval voting]], [[Cardinal Ratings]], and Woodall's [[Descending Acquiescing Coalitions|DAC]] and [[Descending Solid Coalitions|DSC]] methods all pass the participation criterion.

It's possible to pass both Condorcet and Participation for three candidates and any number of voters, or for four candidates up to 11 voters inclusive.<ref name="Brandt Geist Peters 2016">{{cite arXiv | last=Brandt | first=Felix | last2=Geist | first2=Christian | last3=Peters | first3=Dominik | title=Optimal Bounds for the No-Show Paradox via SAT Solving | date=2016-02-25 | eprint=1602.08063 | class=cs.GT }}</ref> This result also holds for certain probabilistic extensions of the Condorcet criterion.
All Monroe type multi-member systems fail participation.
