===== Two primary voting mechanisms are used to allocate shareholder voting power: =====

====== - Each share entitles the shareholder to one vote per director position. ======
* Votes cannot be pooled; they must be distributed evenly across positions.
* Example: If a shareholder owns 100 shares and three directors are up for election, the shareholder casts 100 votes for each director (a total of 300 votes).
* Implication: This system favors majority shareholders, as they can dominate each director election.

====== - Shareholders may allocate their total votes in any manner they choose across candidates. ======
* Total votes = number of shares owned × number of directors to be elected.
* Example: With 100 shares and three directors, a shareholder has 300 votes and may choose to cast all 300 for a single candidate or split them across candidates.
* Implication: This system enhances the ability of minority shareholders to concentrate their votes and potentially elect at least one representative to the board.
