Casting your vote
In each election you are able to select what order you'd like the candidates to rate. For example, there might be 4 candidates, Joe, Anna, Frank, Jonny & R.O.N.
Then, you can rate them in the order of preference:
| Joe | 2 |
Here we can see that the candidates have been voted in this order, Frank, Joe, Jonny, Anna then R.O.N. (R.O.N. isn't a candidate. It stands for Re-Open Nominations and should be used only if you don't like any of the candidates ) |
| Anna | 4 | |
| Frank | 1 | |
| Jonny | 3 | |
| R.O.N. | 5 |
Press the cast your vote button and you then will be taken to the next election where you can repeat the process until all the elections are complete.
This type of voting is called Single Transferable voting (STV) a description can be found on here
