This is concerned with voting processes on graphs where each vertex holds one of two different opinions. In particular, we study theBest‐of‐twoand theBest‐of‐three. Here at each synchronous round, each vertex updates its opinion to match the majority among the opinions of two random neighbors and itself (the Best‐of‐two) or the opinions of three random neighbors (the Best‐of‐three). In this study, we consider the Best‐of‐two and the Best‐of‐three on the stochastic block modelG(2n,p,q), which is a random graph consisting of two distinct Erdős–Rényi graphsG(n,p) joined by random edges with a densityq≤p. We prove phase transition results for these processes: there is a thresholdr∗such that, ifq/p>r∗then the process reaches consensus within rounds and the process requires rounds ifq/p<r∗. For the Best‐of‐two and Best‐of‐three, the thresholds are andr∗= 1/7, respectively.
