Résumé

Elections are the heart of democracy. The choices made by a social group generally affect all the individuals in
that group. So social choice is about the selection of options by a group of individuals. Many voting methods exist in the
literature but these methods are not necessarily adapted to the situation of low-income countries, forcing these countries to go
into debt to organize elections that sometimes do not express the will of the people. In our case we seek to elect a president of
the republic by indirect suffrage. To do this we first organize a coupled election (legislative and municipal) in which mayors
and deputies are elected. Then, the latter will in turn constitute the electors responsible for designating a president of the
republic. The weight of the votes of these electors in the choice of the president is therefore a function of the schooling rate of
the region where they were designated. Thus, by applying the vote by score and considering the weight of the votes of the
electors, a winner is designated. The winner of the election is the one who obtains the most points. This voting method has the
advantage of being less costly.
