Zusammenfassung:	A method for eliciting and aggregating truthful preferences of respondents, with steps of assigning a currency budget to a respondent and generating a user interface. The user interface: displays budgets for each respondent; displays choices among alternative outcomes for each respondent and a method for allocating votes among options by paying according to a quadratic function; displays the outcome of the voting for each respondent; enables a third party to select and contact respondents; enables the third party to observe voting choices and final voting outcomes; and enables the third party to control budgets and voting options.
