How to use "Provisional" in context?
Provisional voting refers to a voting system in which citizens vote by marking choices on ballot papers that may or may not contain their actual preference. This system is used in situations where the results of the vote are not yet known, such as in elections in which there are more than two possible candidates. In a situation where two candidates have the same number of votes, the candidate who gains the most votes from the total number of ballots cast in the constituency is declared the winner. This is called the first-past-the-post system.
