party vote
Unified faction choice
A party vote is a vote in which legislators vote according to their party's position rather than individual judgment.
The term describes bloc voting along party lines: The bill passed on a strict party vote.
In some parliamentary systems, particularly New Zealand's, party vote also refers to the portion of a ballot where voters choose a political party rather than an individual candidate.
