Single Transferable Vote is a method in which voters can put numbers next to as many or as few candidates as they like. The Single Transferable Vote by Proportional Representation (STV-PR) system is used in India for the elections to the Rajya Sabha. In the Rajya Sabha elections, members are elected by the elected members of the Legislative Assemblies of States and Union territories. The STV-PR system allows voters to cast their preferences for multiple candidates in order of preference.
