bullet vote

Read a random definition: audit-letter response

A quick definition of bullet vote:

A bullet vote is when a person only votes for one candidate, even if they are allowed to vote for more. This type of vote can have a bigger impact on the outcome of an election. For example, if there are three candidates and a person only votes for one, that candidate has a better chance of winning because they have one more vote than the other two candidates.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: A bullet vote is a type of vote where a voter casts their ballot for fewer candidates than the number of positions available. This type of vote can slightly enhance the ballot's effect on the outcome.

Example: In an election where three candidates are running for two positions, a voter may choose to cast a bullet vote by only selecting one candidate instead of two. This means that their vote will only count towards that one candidate, potentially increasing their chances of winning.

This example illustrates how a bullet vote can be used strategically to increase the chances of a preferred candidate winning. However, it is important to note that this type of vote can also be seen as a waste of a vote if the voter does not select enough candidates to fill all available positions.
