straight ticket
Single-party voting
A straight ticket is a vote cast for all candidates of a single political party, rather than splitting votes among parties.
Some ballots allow voters to mark one box to vote a straight ticket automatically: She voted a straight Democratic ticket.
The opposite is a split ticket.
