An alternative that is consented by all voters is called a [[unanimous consensus winner]]. It is possible that no such winner exists in a given election. Also, in a given election with two or more alternatives, there can exist more than one unanimous consensus winner. Voting systems that guarantee the election of a unanimous consensus winner must have a tie-breaking mechanism among multiple winners in order to be decisive. |

Any voting system that satisfies the [[greatest possible consensus criterion]] necessarily satisfies this criterion. |

[[Approval voting]] and [[Llull Voting]] satisfy the unanimous consensus criterion. [[Condorcet methods]], [[Plurality voting]], [[IRV]], and the [[Borda count]] do not satisfy this criterion. |
