The President & Vice-President are elected by the ballots cast by citizens called electors.
Electors
In U.S. practice, a poll tax was a tax on the act of voting in an election and had to be paid before a citizen could cast a ballot.
It is how many voters came to the polls and to cast votes. It is usually a percentage of the registered voters. If there are 1000 registered voters and 150 vote, that is 15% and is a light turnout. If 900 vote, it is 90% and a heavy turnout.
Since mandatory voting began in Australia, the percentage of ballots that voters intentionally complete in random or incorrect ways remains around 2 to 3%.
