Q. What is the plural voting system?
Answer: Eligible voter exercises one vote and some voters with specific qaulifications cast more than one vote.
Notes: Plural voting is the practice whereby one person might be able to vote multiple times in an election. This was a common aspect of the franchise for elections held in the 1800s where the right to vote was linked to the ownership of property; an elector could vote in as many districts as the elector owned property. This was the prevalent system in Britain before 1948 when certain electors could vote in more than one constituency.
