How does the US Supreme Court conduct a vote?
On a regular basis the justices meet in a special conference room by themselves. They discuss cases with each justice having an opportunity to give his opinion why the case should be decided one way or another. At the end of the discussion a voice vote is taken and the determination whether the lower court decision is affirmed or reversed is decided then and there. If the Chief Justice is in the majority, he decides whether he will write the court's opinion or have one of the associate justices of the majority write it. If the Chief Justice is not in the majority, then the senior associate justice within the majority decides whether he or she will write the court opinion or delegate the writing to one of the other associate justices in the majority.

How do people prepare to vote for president?
I am not sure what you want to know. In order to vote, one has to register in advance with the local election officer. Then, you have to report at your assigned polling location on election day during the times the polls or open with the proper ID , or else, if allowed, vote early according to the rules, or else vote by absentee ballot, according to instructions. As for preparing to cast your vote, different people prepare in different ways. The way I think is best is to read as many newspaper and magazine articles as you can about the candidate, watch the debates and try to decide which candidate will do the most for the country. Others study the same way, but vote for the candidate who will do the most for their own self-interests. Some people vote for the best-looking candidate; some vote the way their spouses or friends tell them to; some always vote for the same party; some vote for the candidate whose moral or religious values are closest to their own. Some vote for the candidate is most like themselves, that is same race, same sex, same state, same ethnic group, or the same in some way that matters to them.
