摘要：This paper analyzes truthtelling incentives in pre-vote communicationin heterogeneous committees. We generalize the classical Condorcet jurymodel by introducing a new informational structure that captures consistencyof information. In contrast to the impossibility result shown byCoughlan (2000) for the classical model, full pooling of information followedby sincere voting is an equilibrium outcome of our model for a largeset of parameter values implying the possibility of ex post conflict betweencommittee members. Furthermore, abandonning the assumption ofsincere voting, we characterize necessary and sufficient conditions for theimplementability of the first best decision rule via truthful equilibria.
