A quick definition of exhausted ballot:

An exhausted ballot is a type of vote where all the choices have already been elected or eliminated. This means that the vote does not count towards any winning candidate. It is important to make sure that your vote is legal and cast in the proper form and manner for an eligible choice by someone entitled to vote. There are different types of votes, such as a counted vote, where each voter is individually counted, or a voice vote, where the voters collectively answer aloud. It is important to understand the different types of votes and how they work in order to participate in a fair and democratic election.

A more thorough explanation:

An exhausted ballot is a preferential vote on which all the ranked candidates have already been elected or eliminated. This means that the voter's ballot no longer has any impact on the outcome of the election.

For example, in an election with three candidates, a voter may rank their choices as follows: 1) Candidate A, 2) Candidate B, 3) Candidate C. If Candidate A is eliminated in the first round of counting and the voter's vote is transferred to Candidate B, but Candidate B is also eliminated in the second round, the voter's ballot becomes exhausted because all their ranked choices have been eliminated.

An exhausted ballot is also known as an exhausted vote.
