Resumo(s)
In this paper, we will study if Portugal should consider changing its
Presidential election voting system from Plurality Runoff to Instant Runoff Voting or
Approval Voting. We produce a systematic state-of-the-art review of Instant Runoff
Voting and Approval Voting, from an axiomatic perspective by using a specific set of
voting criteria, and by reviewing the literature on the theoretical and practical benefits
and challenges. After identifying the main features of each system, we present a brief
discussion on how these voting systems might apply to the Portuguese context, including
a small simulation using data from the 1986 Presidential Election
