چکیده

We show how to construct power indices that respect proportionality between power and weight from average representations of a game. If restricted to account for the lack of power of dummy voters, average representations become coherent measures of voting power, such that the resulting power distributions are proportional to the distribution of weights. Imposing other restrictions may lead to a whole family of such power indices.
