Voting correctly

Voting correctly is a concept from political psychology that means a vote decision "that is the same as the choice which would have been made under conditions of full information."[1] Measurements of correct votes are used to determine how accurate low-information voters are at determining the candidate or party that best represents the voters' interests.
