• Log in eValg

• You can vote again until the election formally ends. If you do so, your previous ballot will be automatically deleted.

The preference voting system is an electoral system in a multi-member district where you cast your vote to candidates in a ranked order. The candidate you would most like to see elected should receive your first preference and must be ranked number 1. You can then give your second preference to your next preferred candidate. This candidate must be ranked number 2. You can continue to rank all the candidates listed. If your preferred candidate fails to get elected when the votes are counted, your vote will be transferred to your next candidate on your ranked list, and so on.
Since the list of candidates is not preranked, this voting system gives you an influence as to who is elected, even if your first preferred candidate fails to receive enough votes to be elected. If you only prioritize one candidate and this candidate is eliminated due to insufficient support when the votes are counted, your vote cannot be transferred to the next candidate, and you will no longer have influence on who is elected.
