Question

Explain the difference between a plurality and a majority in terms of choosing a candidate for a primary.

Answer 1

Plurality - an electoral system that each voter can vote for only one candidate, the candidate who searches the most among his/her peers (plurality) is elected .

Majority - in the majority system the candidate has to receive the majority of the votes.
