Abstract
Given a graph of vertices, where each vertex is initially attached an opinion of either red or blue. We investigate a random process known as the Best-of-three voting. In this process, at each time step, every vertex chooses three neighbours at random and adopts the majority colour. We study this process for a class of graphs with minimum degree \,, where . We prove that if initially each vertex is red with probability greater than , and blue otherwise, where for some , then with high probability this dynamic reaches a final state where all vertices are red within steps.
