چکیده
Sticker Voting is a voting method where ballots are cast by placing stickers on favored candidates. It differs from many other voting methods because the act of voting reveals information to other players, which induces an asymmetry of information available to subsequent voters. Voters may strategize through both the choice of the submitted ballot and the timing of its submission. In this paper, we introduce and analyze a model for strategic voter behavior in Sticker Voting. We find its equilibrium behavior and discuss how it reflects human voting behavior.
