| Abstract: | This dissertation explores three areas of law where voting procedures have unexpected and unintuitive results. Chapter one explores how jury vote-aggregation procedures can lead to outcomes with which no juror agrees. Chapter two highlights how recent Title IX voting reforms designed to benefit sexual assault victims may have the opposite effect. Finally, chapter three examines corporate voting rules and shows how certain procedures can lead corporations to adopt beliefs and take actions that all of its members disavow. |
