A quick definition of majority voting:

Majority voting is when people cast their votes to decide something. It means that more than half of the people who vote need to agree on something for it to happen. For example, if there are 10 people voting, at least 6 of them need to agree on something for it to be decided by majority voting. This is different from other types of voting, like preferential voting or cumulative voting, where people can rank their choices or cast multiple votes.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: Majority voting is the process of casting votes to decide an issue. In this system, each voter can cast one vote per representative being elected, and a simple majority is required for election.

Examples: Majority voting is commonly used in corporate elections, where shareholders vote to elect members of the board of directors. In this system, each shareholder can cast one vote per seat on the board, and the candidate with the most votes wins. Another example is in political elections, where voters cast their ballots for a candidate to represent them in government.

Explanation: Majority voting is a simple and straightforward system that ensures that the candidate with the most support is elected. It is used in a variety of settings, from corporate elections to political elections. In corporate elections, it ensures that the board of directors is representative of the shareholders' interests. In political elections, it ensures that the candidate with the most support is elected to represent the people.
