'''Approval voting''' is a single-winner [[electoral system]] in which voters mark all the candidates they support, instead of just [[Plurality voting|choosing one]]. The candidate with the highest approval rating is elected. Approval voting is currently in use for government elections in [[St. Louis, Missouri]] and [[Fargo, North Dakota]].
