How do elections in a single-member district differ from elections that fill the seats at-large?
Single-Member District all the candidates appear on the ballot and the voters indicate their choice of one of them--by marking an X, pulling a voting lever, etc. At-Large Voting In at-large voting, all the candidates for office run in one large multi-member district -- usually the entire city. Voters have the same number of votes as the number of seats to be filled.
