In this paper we shortly introduce an application of a method based on power indices and coalitional games to design a weighted majority voting system in practice. More specically, we solve an inverse Banzhaf index problem in order to decide the weight of great electors within the electoral college for the election of the members of the Administration Board and the Academic Senate of the Paris Sciences & Lettres University. The method used and the relevant parameters of our analysis are presented and discussed.
