two-round voting

Read a random definition: cum fossa et furca

A quick definition of two-round voting:

Two-round voting: A way of voting where the voting happens in two rounds. In the first round, people vote for their preferred candidate. If no candidate gets a majority of the votes, the top two candidates from the first round go to a second round of voting. The winner of the second round is the overall winner.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: Two-round voting is a system in which the voting occurs in two rounds, with the first round determining the candidate's eligibility for the second round. The second round may be a runoff between the top two candidates from the first round, an election by plurality among candidates who won their political parties' nominations in the first round, or an election by plurality among the candidates from the first round who reached a certain threshold.

Example: In a presidential election, if no candidate receives a majority of the votes in the first round, a second round of voting is held between the top two candidates from the first round. This is an example of two-round voting.

Explanation: Two-round voting is used in many countries to ensure that the winning candidate has a majority of the votes. In the first round, voters can choose from a variety of candidates. If no candidate receives a majority of the votes, a second round is held between the top two candidates from the first round. This ensures that the winning candidate has the support of a majority of the voters.

"Two recent polls found opposition to pardoning the J6ers at 57 and 59 percent, respectively, and that was before Americans understood that even the cop-beaters in the crowd that day would be let off scot-free."

I lean conservative and for a long time was one of those people who thought that he was bad but wasn't a facist and that sort of rhetoric was over-reactive. And for those reasons I voted for Harris, but I think I was underestimating him by far.
