Arrow’s dictators are the relevant voters. Suppose polls predict 40% blue, or respectively 60% blue; one should still vote blue as a matter of game theory, but their vote won’t decide anything. I’m not going to invoke the Impossibility theorem, merely borrowing the definition of “dictator”; it’s quite possible that the actual vote will not have any dictators, but we can force folks to think of the problem as something trolley-problem-shaped by explaining that there are circumstances where their choice will kill people.
