The STAR Voting ballot, including recommended instructions and formatting details.Graphic explaining how STAR Voting works
STAR voting is an electoral system for single-seat elections.[1][2] The name (an allusion to star ratings) stands for "Score then Automatic Runoff", referring to the fact that this system is a combination of score voting, to pick two finalists with the highest total scores, followed by an "automatic runoff" in which the finalist who is preferred on more ballots wins. It is a type of cardinal voting electoral system.
