Piggy used the word "democracy" to vote for Ralph, but he didn't truly want to because he preferred to support Jack.
Piggy voted for Ralph to be chief in the novel "Lord of the Flies" by William Golding.
In txt, Golding says that Piggy didn't vote for Jack, as all of the choir did, instead, when Ralph asks for his votes, Piggy reluctantly puts his hand up. Whether or not he really wants it is out of the question, fact is he still voted for Ralph
He voted for Ralph "grudgingly".

There were 25 boys who voted for Ralph in the assembly.
Gwen but she didnt really get voted off she lost the race when she versed Owen.
Piggy isn't actually nominated as a leader, which is probably why nobody voted for him. Ralph, as the person who actually blew the conch, which called the boys to the meeting, was nominated by several boys who called out phrases such as "Him with the shell," etc. Jack nominated himself and his choir felt obliged to vote for him probably from a mixture of subservient loyalty and fear. In the end Ralph was elected because as leader by the rest of the boys who didn't know Jack and were probably a little annoyed by his arrogance also, as the book said, 'There was a stillness about Ralph which marked him out; there was his size, and attractive appearance; and most obscurely, yet most powerfully, there was the conch.'
The vote was between Jack and Ralph. When all the boys voted they chose Ralph as their leader. :)
Simon was not the only one who doubted the existence of the beast. At the meeting where the beastie was first raised Ralph insisted, "But there is no beast." Ralph also called another meeting to settle once and for all that there was no such thing as a beast. At that meeting Piggy also refuted the possibility of a beast by stating that "Things wouldn't work, radios and TV and things, they wouldn't make sense if there were beasts and ghosts and stuff, its not scientific." After Ralph called for a vote to decide if there might be such a thing as the beast Piggy stated, "And remember that I voted NO for the beast."
