What is the name for a system where voters cast ballots for candidates and from that pile a ballot is chosen at random to decide who is elected?
Interesting. Is this system commonly used in any countries?
Sortition-based systems are not commonly used in modern democracies, but they have historical precedence, such as in ancient Athens where officials were chosen by lot. However, there have been recent proposals for incorporating random selection into certain political processes, such as citizen assemblies or deliberative democracy.
