Voting Methods
Choose the voting method that best suits your election — from simple plurality to advanced preferential systems.
Plurality Voting
The simplest and most widely used method. Each voter selects one or more candidates, and the candidate(s) with the most votes win. Supports single-winner and multi-winner elections.
Preferential Voting
Voters rank candidates by preference. Supports Instant-Runoff (IRV), Single Transferable Vote (STV), Borda Count, and Condorcet methods for fair representation.
Score Voting
Voters assign a score to each candidate on a defined scale. The candidate with the highest total or average score wins. Ideal for nuanced evaluations and multi-criteria decisions.
Special Vote Options
electobox supports additional ballot options to ensure every voter's intent is accurately captured.
Blank Vote
Voters can submit a blank ballot to participate without selecting any candidate, expressing dissent or abstention from choices.
Abstention
Voters can formally abstain from a contest while still participating in other contests on the same ballot.
Spoilt Vote
Voters can intentionally cast a spoilt ballot as a formal protest, which is recorded and counted separately in the results.
