The rate of convergence is high and it is of the magnitude of 1n\documentclass[12pt]{minimal} \usepackage{amsmath} \usepackage{wasysym} \usepackage{amsfonts} \usepackage{amssymb} \usepackage{amsbsy} \usepackage{mathrsfs} \usepackage{upgreek} \setlength{\oddsidemargin}{-69pt} \begin{document}$$\frac{1}{n}$$\end{document}. Empirical evidence from the Netherlands elections supports our result. A comparison with the Banzhaf index is provided.
