Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Cyclical majorities occur when voters do not have single-peaked preferences, meaning that they do not all prefer one candidate over another in a consistent and ordered way. Instead, voters may prefer Candidate A over Candidate B, Candidate B over Candidate C, and Candidate C over Candidate A, resulting in a cycle of inconsistent majority preferences.
