  1. cumulative vote

    Cumulative voting (also accumulation voting, weighted voting or multi-voting) is a multiple-winner method intended to promote more proportional representation than winner-take-all elections such as block voting or first past the post. Cumulative voting is used frequently in corporate governance, where it is mandated by some (7) U.S. states (see e.g., Minn. Stat. Sec. 302A.111 subd. 2(d).).

  1. cumulative vote

    Cumulative voting is a type of voting system that allows shareholders or voters to give multiple votes to a single candidate or divide their votes among several candidates. This method is often used in corporate governance, where shareholders can vote for several positions on the board of directors. It's designed to allow minority shareholders, who would be unable to get any candidates elected under a regular voting system, to ensure their representation.
