Fig. 5: The perceived legitimacy of a voting method varies by context.

Legitimacy ratings by context (left) and inconsistency (right). p-values are calculated using the Wilcoxon signed rank test with Holms adjustment. Black p-values and brackets denote comparisons between dimensions (color vs. COVID-19, consistent vs. inconsistent). p-values in color indicate comparisons within a dimension but across voting methods. The gray scatter shows individual ratings, with mean values represented by dots inside the box, median values indicated by horizontal lines. The dashed horizontal lines represent the mean of all voting methods by consistency or context.
