How Do Voting Systems Actually Work?

Imagine you're at a big party, and everyone has to pick their favorite ice cream flavor. A voting system is like the way people count all those votes. If it's paper ballots, they add up all the votes by hand. If it's electronic voting machines, they do the counting automatically. There are different types of systems, some give you a single choice, others let you pick multiple things. It’s like making sure everyone’s favorite ice cream is counted fairly.
