Abstract

It may happen that the favorite candidate of a voter loses an election if that voter votes honestly, but gets elected if the voter abstains. Such a situation is known in the social choice literature under the name of « no-show paradox ». This paper is devoted to the evaluation of the likelihood of that phenomenon under parliamentary voting rules.
