If that was so, I would not have posed the question :-)
There are methods that will lead to the election of the compromise when all
voters use "optimal" strategies (i.e. maximizing expected rating/utility).
And they need not even be randomized (although that makes the solution much
easier).
Let's see who will find the answer...
