Transitive Vote

In Liquid Democracy, transitive voting allows a person to delegate their voting power to another individual, who can then further delegate it if they choose. For example, if you trust Alice on an issue but not Bob, you can delegate your vote to Alice, and if she also trusts Charlie, she can pass your vote to him. This system enables flexibility and trust among voters, allowing decisions to be made by individuals who are well-informed, while still preserving the option for voters to directly participate if they wish.
