A generalization of simple majority voting in which a list of quotas specifies, according to the number of votes, how many votes an alternative needs to win (Taylor 1995). The quota system declares a tie unless for some , there are exactly tie votes in the profile and one of the alternatives has at least votes, in which case the alternative is the choice.
Let be the number of quota systems for voters and the number of quota systems for which , so
