Line 1:
'''Probabilistic Approval Voting''' is a sequential [[Proportional representation|proportional voting system]] that uses either [[Approval ballot|approval]] or [[Score voting|score]] ballots. Its winners are found by the use of probabilistic calculations.
Let's say that there is a function <math>P:C
In practice, electing a candidate whose inverse score is at least as low as inverse Hare quota will not always be possible. In that case we need to either add fail-safe approvals which we previously didn't consider or elect the candidate with the lowest inverse score and hope it is low enough.
