Abstract
⺠We study a prototypical model of a Parliament with two Parties/Coalitions. ⺠We introduce a variable percentage of randomly selected independent legislators. ⺠We show that global efficiency increases with independent legislators. ⺠We analytically find an “efficiency golden rule”. ⺠The “efficiency golden rule” predicts the optimal number of independent legislator.
