[[Sequentially Shrinking Quota]] is a modification to limit [[Free riding]]

It is the natural extension of the [[Hamilton method]] which is used in [[Partisan Systems]] to [[Multi-Member System]].IN this sense it fits into the Monroe class of [[Proportional Representation]]. Since score is a conserved quantity which is spent like money there is a natural analogy to [https://rangevoting.org/MarketBasedVoting.html Market based voting].

===Participation===
 
Because this system is a Monroe type which is derived from the [[Hamilton method]] it fails participation. An illustrtive example is as follows.
 
To simplify lets condsider a 2 seat election in a max=10 score. The candidates are all clones of type A and B.
 
Case 1:
<poem>30 voters: A=10, B=0
9 voters: A=0, B=10
1 voter: A=1, B=10</poem>
 
Without the 1 voter giving a score of 1 to A, it would be a tie for the second seat so this score means that A gets both seats. But then if you add one voter.
 
Case 2:
<poem>30 voters: A=10, B=0
9 voters: A=0, B=10
1 voter: A=1, B=10
1 voter: A=1, C=10</poem>
 
The extra voter changes the quota size and causes B to get the second seat, even though they prefer A to B.
 
==== Math Details ====
 
For Case 1
 
Score quota = 40*10/2=200
 
A is the first winner with 301
 
Ballots spend 200/301 times their support for A
 
<poem>30 voters: A=3.4, B=0
9 voters: A=0, B=10
1 voter: A=1, B=9.33</poem>
 
A has 100.66 and B has 99.33. Close but the winner set is {A,A}
 
For Case 2
 
Score quota = 41*10/2=205
 
A is the first winner with 302
 
Ballots spend 205/302 times their support for A
<poem>
30 voters: A=3.2, B=0
9 voters: A=0, B=10
1 voter: A=1, B=9.32
1 voter: A=1, C=10</poem>
 
A has 98.36 and B has 99.32. Close but the winner set is {A,B}. So the C supporter ruined it for the second A candidate. This is a failure of participation.
