Which term describes a voting method where members express their vote vocally using 'Aye' or 'No'?

• A. Viva Voce
• B. Voice Vote
• C. Veto
• D. Ballot

Answer: (B)

Voice vote describes a voting method in which members express their support or opposition aloud by saying "Aye" for yes and "No" for no when the chair calls for votes. It's a quick, nonsecret way to determine the result, relying on the chair to judge which side is louder. If the outcome is doubtful, a division (a counted rising vote) or a ballot (a written vote) can be requested for a clearer result. The Latin term viva voce is often used to describe the same idea, but the common English label for this method is voice vote.
