First Past The Post (FPTP)
This is the simplest system. Each voter votes for one candidate. The
candidate they prefer. The candidate with the most votes is elected.
FPTP can also be used to elect multiple candidates for a constituency
in some local elections. Each voter gets N votes where there are N
people to be elected. The voters must use each vote on a different
candidate; they cannot put all their votes on the same candidate.
The N candidates with the most votes are elected.
