Fractional, stochastic, or weighted social choice is a branch of social choice theory in which the collective decision is not a single alternative, but rather a weighted sum of two or more alternatives. For example, if society has to choose between three candidates (A, B, or C), then in standard social choice exactly one of these candidates is chosen.
