vote share
Ballot count fraction
Vote share is the percentage of total votes received by a candidate, party, or option in an election or poll.
It measures relative support rather than absolute numbers: The incumbent's vote share dropped from 52% to 47%.
Political analysts track vote share to assess electoral strength, predict outcomes, and measure shifts in public sentiment across elections.
