Abstract
We give a lower bound of $\Omega(\sqrt n)$ on the unambiguous randomised parity-query complexity of the approximate majority problem -- that is, on the lowest randomised parity-query complexity of any function over $\{0,1\}^n$ whose value is"0"if the Hamming weight of the input is at most n/3, is"1"if the weight is at least 2n/3, and may be arbitrary otherwise.
