Committee Voting. ‌ The primary strand of related work on committee decision making begins with Xxxxxx-Xxxxx and Banks (1996), who, using a version of the basic model below, show that for a binary group decision made by simultaneous vote, it is not always a Xxxx equilibrium for members to vote in line with their own information. Xxxxxxxxx and Pesendorfer (1998) conclude that unanimity is an especially poor voting rule in this context, but Xxxxxxxx (2000) defends the rule with two extensions of the model. Xxxxxxxxx and Xxxxxx-Xxxxx (2006) show more generally that uncertainty about private, individual preferences is necessary for full information sharing, and if there exists a truth-revealing equilibrium under unanimous rule, there does for any voting rule (but the converse is not true). See Xxxxxxx et al. (2005) for an early survey of information aggregation in committee decision making. Xxxxxxx and Yariv (2007, 2008) approach the topic from the perspective of mecha- nism design, showing the equivalence of different voting rules when members deliber- 4However, Xxxxxx and Davids (2012) criticize the models for effectively retrofitting data via free parameters, and Marcus and Xxxxx (2013) echo the sentiment (but see Xxxxxxxxx et al. 2012 for a rebuttal of the critique). ate before casting votes. Xxxxxxx and Tan (2013) find that when a committee consults experts who can conceal information but cannot lie, the maximization of information aggregation and total utility share no necessary relationship. While strategic voting and information aggregation are natural foci, other work ex- amines whether specialization is desirable in committee decision making (Xxx-Xxxxxx et al. 2012), how restricting communication protocol can improve group decisions (Xxxxxxx 2012), when a deliberating group will reach a consensus (XxXxxxx 1974, Xxxxxxx and Winter 2008), and when that conensus is accurate (Xxxxx and Xxxx- son 2010). Xxxxxxx (2004) and Xxxxxxxxxxxx (2003) examine the effect of voting rules and committee size on endogenous information collection. Those factors can be important in the group context but are omitted here to focus on the main result.
