Random ballot
A random ballot, or random dictatorship, is a randomized electoral system where the election is decided on the basis of a single randomly selected ballot. A closely related variant is called random serial (or sequential) dictatorship, which repeats the procedure and draws another ballot if multiple candidates are tied on the first ballot.

Random dictatorship was first described in 1977 by Allan Gibbard, who showed it to be the unique social choice rule that treats all voters equally while still being strategyproof in all situations. Its application to elections was first described in 1984 by Akhil Reed Amar.

The rule is rarely, if ever, proposed as a genuine electoral system, as such a method (in Gibbard's words) "leaves too much to chance". However, the rule is often used as a tiebreaker to encourage voters to cast honest ballots, and is sometimes discussed as a thought experiment.

Scott Gibbons
Scott Gibbons (born March 2, 1969) is an American-born composer and performer of electroacoustic music.
