More than half of the votes cast is also simply called which?

• A. Majority point
• B. Majority vote
• C. Supermajority
• D. Plurality

Answer: (B)

More than half of the votes cast defines a majority, and the term used for a vote that reaches that threshold is a majority vote. This is the standard way to describe a decision that passes when more for than against are recorded. It’s different from a plurality, which means taking more votes than any other option but not necessarily more than half; a supermajority requires a higher threshold like two-thirds. There isn’t a standard term like “majority point.” So the simplest, most accurate label for that threshold is a majority vote.
