Name:
1. Consider the two voting systems [3;2, 1, 1] and [6; 5,3, 1] where the weights are assigned to a faculty
advisor, a graduate student, and an undergraduate student, respectively. Compute the Shapley-Shubik
Power Index (SSPI) of each voter for the two voting systems. What does this say about the two voting
systems?
