Imagine you're in a big group of people who all want to be the leader. Some people are really popular, so others pick them as their favorite person to lead. If one person gets enough votes from these groups, they automatically become the leader, even if they never asked to be picked.
Examples
- A kid gets picked as the class president without even saying they want it.
- Your favorite teacher becomes principal just because everyone agrees on them.
