 One way  to deal with some of the problems raised in the above quote is to  use proxy voting, in which voters can delegate their vote  on some issues (Miller 1969). Liquid Democracy is a form of proxy voting  in which voters can delegate their votes to other voters (ideally, to voters that are well-informed about the issue under consideration). What distinguishes Liquid Democracy from proxy voting is that proxies may further delegate the votes entrusted to them. For example, suppose that there is a vote to accept or reject a proposition. Each voter is given the option to delegate their vote to another voter, called a proxy. The proxies, in turn, are given the option to delegate their votes to yet another voter. The voters that decide to not transfer their votes cast a vote weighted by the number of voters who entrusted them as a proxy, either directly or indirectly.
