A group of experts has to pick one winner from a group of candidates. Different experts may have different judgments about who the best candidate is. A social choice rule (SCR) is -supermajoritarian (with ) if, whenever a candidate is judged as best by at least experts, that candidate is considered to be the deserving winner. Experts may be biased and their preferences are not necessarily aligned with their judgments. Then, the social planner has to design a mechanism that implements the SCR. We show that implementability of a -supermajoritarian SCR in an ordinal equilibrium concept requires the group of experts to satisfy a condition of impartiality that depends on (the higher , the weaker the condition).
