Abstract: In this paper we define manipulation with restricted beliefs as the possibility for some voter to have an insincere preference ordering that dominates the sincere one within the given individual beliefs over other agents' preferences. We then show that all non-dictatorial voting schemes are manipulable in this sense, up to a given threshold.
