Question
Assuming a citizen candidate model with a runoff system. If a candidate receives more than 50% of the vote in the first round, he wins the election. If no candidate receives more than 50% of the votes then there is a runoff election between the two candidates with the highest vote shares (there is a lottery with equal probability if several candidates have the same vote share). We are checking whether the following configuration of strategies is equilibrium. Three citizens run, one at the median and two symmetrically on both sides of him at (2/3) and -(2/3).
(a) Show that all three candidates receive the same vote share in the first round.
(b) What is the probability that the candidate on the left (with ideal at -(2/3)) wins the election (both rounds). What is the probability that the central candidate wins the election?
(c) Under what conditions on b and c do the three candidates indeed want to run?
(d) Under what conditions, if at all, does this configuration of strategies form equilibrium?
Summary: This question belongs to political economy and discusses about a citizen candidate model with a runoff system and configuration of strategies is equilibrium.

My concepts regarding database management was not clear. For that reason writing the appropriate queries was a big challenge for me. Then while I was seeking for help online, I came across this wonderful website. Everything changed ever since and my grades also improved immensely.
I would like to thank TheReliableTutor.com and its team for the wonderful service. You guys have produced what I exactly asked for and were so efficient with deadlines. I would definitely recommend this service.
First impression leaves a very deep mark in somebody’s mind and my research proposal, written by one of the experts of HwA was the first impression which impressed my dissertation advisor in my college of Hamilton. After the research proposal I took further help in the actual research paper and got excellent grades.
I was really stuck with my human structure assignments when I came across TheReliableTutor.com. To be honest, I was skeptical. Then I got an A in my cardiovascular systems assignment. That was the first work they did for me. From there it only got better. I am now thinking of doing my MSN and will definitely seek their help for that."
I was stuck with a strategic human resource management assignment when I first took help from HwA. The corporate strategy assignment expert was wonderful and since then I have taken assistance many more times.

Hello Allison,I love the 2nd image that you did! I also, had never heard of SumoPaint, is something that I will have to exolpre a bit! I understand completely the 52 (or so) youtube videos that you probably watched. Sometimes they have what you want, sometimes they don't! However, it is always satisfying when you are able to produce something that you have taught yourself. Great job!Debra 0 likes
