The process and the consequence of the vote are called for voting. We can say that this term we are dealing with now has a Latin etymological origin. It is what derives from the verb “to vote”, which can be translated as “make votes” or “express a wish”. Naquela time, it is considered that, before all, it had a religious meaning, since or “votum” was a promise made to God to achieve something concrete.
It should be noted that voting consists in expressing an election. For example: “The vote to elect the next president of the club will take place tomorrow between 8:00 a.m. and 6:00 p.m.”, “The government promises to implement an electronic voting system”, “The result of the vote is very satisfying to us”. Votes can be of various types,
depending on the type of votes that are made: – Depending on the purpose, the votes can be punitive or useful.
-Based on the options that we offer, we consider as the fact that the votes can be positive, subtractive, blank or null, for example.
-Depending on how they are carried out, the votes can be in person, by post, by email, remotely…
By means of a vote, people can express their support for a candidate, a proposal or an initiative. Depending on the context, voting can take place publicly (the voter announces out loud or with some gesture what his/her wishes are) or secretly (the vote is anonymous: no one knows how each individual votes, only the votes are added to know the results). Suppose the board of directors of a company discusses the opening of a new subsidiary. After a debate among the five members, the vote proceeds: when asked “Who agrees with the project?” , the defenders raise their hands to express their vote. The result of the vote is four votes in favor and one against, the initiative is approved. In order to elect the president of a nation, in a country, a vote is carried out among all the inhabitants over 18 years of age. Nesse case, or vote is secret. People enter sozinhas in a room where there are cards or cards with the names of two candidates, they have to choose and want to vote and put paper in an envelope. Next, the referred envelope is placed in an urn. At the end of the day, the votes are counted in all the country. The vote will mark the election of a new president for the region in question. Now it seems unbelievable for us now, for many years as women we do not have the right to participate in the votes that elect the political leaders of their countries. Also, for example, in Spain and after many years of struggle by women like Clara Campoamor, or women’s suffrage was won in 1930. In a democratic country that is proclaimed, it is determined that the express votes in the vote of two cities must be unique, free , iguais, direct and secret.
Currently, in reality television shows such as “Big Brother”, they are also fala in voting. Specifically, every week the viewers, with their links or cell phone messages, vote in which concurrent they want to be expelled.
