A system of voting created in 2014 for single seat elections (although variations exist for multi seat or proportional elections). TL;DR for how it works: Voter gives all candidates score from 1-5. Top 2 highest scored candidates go to 1v1 match. Whoever voted best by most people wins election!
Advanced Version
In this election, a voter gives each candidate an integer score from 1 to 5, with 1 representing no approval and 5 representing full approval. Not voting for a candidate gives a score of 0. The top two highest scoring candidates go on to a separate runoff. In this runoff, which ever candidate was scored highest by a larger percent wins.

Bob: Aw man we’re going to have to only vote for one person so I have to choose the candidate I think will win and who I like more, not the candidate I genuinely like!
Mark: Well with STAR Voting you can vote for as many people as you want, and your vote will count even if your top pick doesn’t win!
