New election methods incorporate positive and negative votes for proportional representation

Researchers have introduced new methods for committee elections that incorporate both positive and negative votes, moving beyond traditional approval voting. The proposed approaches aim to achieve proportional representation by considering voters' preferences for and against candidates. The study examines the satisfiability of proportionality axioms using variants of established rules like Phragmén's rule, Proportional Approval Voting (PAV), and the Method of Equal Shares (MES). AI
