Magdalena Andersson, Sweden’s first female prime minister, stepped down on Wednesday just hours after her appointment. He resignation came after her coalition partner, the Greens, left the two-party minority government, following a budget defeat in the parliament. Andersson said “a coalition government should resign if one party leaves the government,” but also told the parliament she is still ready to become prime minister, but of a one-party government. Despite pulling support for Andersson, the Green Party said it is prepared to stand behind her in a new vote. Speaker of Parliament Andreas Norlen said he will contact Sweden’s eight party leaders “to discuss the situation” and will announce the road ahead on Thursday.

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.
