Suppose voters are uniformly distributed along a continuum between 0 and 1. There are two candidates. Voters will vote for the candidate who locates closes to them. Candidates only care about receiving more votes than the other candidate (and prefer a tie to losing).What is the rationalizable set of locations for each candidate?
