    The authors identify two large domains of profiles on which the majority rule is strategy-proof and is the only non-dictatorial social choice rule that is strategy-proof. In one case, the domain is the set of profiles of linear orderings for which a strong Condorcet winner exists, and, in the other case the domain is the set of profiles of complete and asymmetric binary relations for which a strong Condorcet winner exists.
