much of our society relies on majority vote

Imagine a police lineup where ten witnesses are asked to identify a bank robber they glimpsed fleeing the crime scene.If six of them pick out the same person,there's a good chance that's the real culprit,and if all ten make the same choice,you might think the case is rock solid,but you'd be wrong.For most of us, this sounds pretty strange.After all, much of our society relies on majority vote and consensus,whether it's politics,business,or entertainment.
