Optimization of political parties strategy during election campaign

Abstract

A theoretical game model for struggle of two big parties for the constituency in the course of election campaign is proposed. The uniqueness of solution to problem of optimal strategy choice in funds distribution among districts is proved. On the basis of the solution to the set optimization problem, the decision rule is indicated, which defines the sum of money that a party has to put in the campaign when the information about the competitors is of stochastic nature.
