| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In this assigned research, we theoretically showed how citizens' small coalitions affect in elections under representative democracy. We cast a ballot not thinking of the probability of becoming a pivotal voter, but thinking of relations with neighbors. This relations can be viewed as a citizens small political coalition. We show the effects it has in electing a candidate in primaries of two parties. Besides, we completed a joint research which the assigned research originates from. In the joint research, we explained how two parties are formed from a view of the citizens' coalitional deviation. In addition to this, we completed another joint research as a related work on electoral results in a multiple hierarchical legislature which is compared with single level legislature.
