Multiple studies demonstrate that structured preference aggregation methods, combinatorial voting rules, and multi-criteria decision analysis provide viable and fair procedures for multi-issue decision making.

The analysis

The retrieved literature contains multiple computer science and decision-theory papers (such as papers 1, 3, 6, and 8) demonstrating that voting rules and preference aggregation methods exist for multi-issue and multi-criteria decision making. None of the papers refute the existence of fair multi-issue voting procedures.
