A partial vote count of Sunday’s presidential run-off has given right-wing populist Keiko #Fujimori a narrow lead over her rival, far-left candidate Pedro #Castillo. The polarising campaign has put the focus on the free-market economic model outlined in #Peru’s constitution, with Castillo vowing to reform the text to allow for more state intervention in key sectors. Plus, Toyota reaches a settlement over the suicide of a young engineer, officially recognised as resulting from harassment at work.

In This Story: Vote
Voting is a method for a group, such as a meeting or an electorate, in order to make a collective decision or express an opinion usually following discussions, debates or election campaigns. Democracies elect holders of high office by voting. Residents of a place represented by an elected official are called “constituents”, and those constituents who cast a ballot for their chosen candidate are called “voters”. There are different systems for collecting votes, but while many of the systems used in decision-making can also be used as electoral systems, any which cater for proportional representation can only be used in elections.
In smaller organizations, voting can occur in different ways. Formally via ballot to elect others for example within a workplace, to elect members of political associations or to choose roles for others. Informally voting could occur as a spoken agreement or as a verbal gesture like a raised hand or electronically.
