<P> A-voters again, with the clear advantage of 40%, logically vote for Candidate A. B - voters again, split exactly in half . Each B - voter decides to vote negatively against their least favorite candidate, with the reasoning that this negative vote allows them to express approval for the two other candidates . C - voters also decide to vote negatively against Candidate A, reasoning along similar lines . Candidate B is the winner with 0 votes . Enough negative votes were cast against Candidate B's opponents, resulting in negative totals . Candidate A, despite having polled at 40%, winds up with - 5%, offset due to the aggregate 45% of negative votes cast by B and C voters . Candidate C ends up with - 15% . </P> <P> Proxy voting is the type of voting where a registered citizen who is able to vote passes on his or her vote to a different voter or electorate legitimately . </P> <P> In South Africa, there is a strong presence of anti-voting campaigns by poor citizens .

Campaign which becomes very prominent each time the country holds elections . The campaign is prominent among three of South Africa's largest social movements: the Western Cape Anti-Eviction Campaign, Abahlali baseMjondolo, and the Landless Peoples Movement . </P> <P> Other social movements in other parts of the world also have similar campaigns or non-voting preferences . These include the Zapatista Army of National Liberation and various anarchist - oriented movements . </P>
