Point Voting:

 In the case of point voting rule a fixed number of points (say, 100) is allotted to each voter.  The voter castes number of points in accordance with his intensity of preference for different alternative outcomes aggregating the number of votes to the fixed number as allotted.
 
Let us assume that there are three individuals X, Y and Z and there are three alternative outcome a, b and c 
 
  X:   a > b > c
  Y:   b > c > a
  Z:   c > b > a 
 
Suppose each voter is allowed to allocate 100 votes among a, b and c in accordance with his intensity of preference. \

Table explains point voting and concludes that the group choice results in
 
  b >c > a
 
However point voting rule gives scope for strategic voting because the casting of number of points for an outcome on the basis of intensity of preference is not definite but subjective. Besides this, point voting might also give indeterminate result in the group preference when alternative outcomes get equal number of votes in aggregate.
