Supermajority Voting Rules

Supermajority Voting Rules is a voting procedure that requires a candidate or proposal to obtain more than a simple majority—typically a specified fraction greater than 50% of the votes, such as two-thirds or three-fourths—in order to be elected or approved, thereby ensuring broader consensus than majority rule.
