Question

Suppose the above bell curve (normal distribution) represents the voters and their viewpoints (the "height" of the curve represents the number of voters with that particular view) on the highly debated issue for an upcoming election for a member of Congress. The two candidates's (A and B) views on the issue are as indicated; your opinion on the issue is represented by the "green line."

Who will you vote for in the election? Why do you prefer that candidate over the other?

According to the Median Voter Theory, which candidate will win the election? Why will that candidate win (why will they receive the majority of votes)?

Features Features Normal distribution is characterized by two parameters, mean (µ) and standard deviation (σ). When graphed, the mean represents the center of the bell curve and the graph is perfectly symmetric about the center. The mean, median, and mode are all equal for a normal distribution. The standard deviation measures the data's spread from the center. The higher the standard deviation, the more the data is spread out and the flatter the bell curve looks. Variance is another commonly used measure of the spread of the distribution and is equal to the square of the standard deviation.
