*'''Bloc STAR Voting''': Each voter scores all the candidates on a scale from 0-5. All the scores are added and the two highest scoring candidates advance to an automatic runoff. The finalist who was preferred by (scored higher by) more voters wins the first seat. The next two highest scoring candidates then runoff, with the finalist preferred by more voters winning the next seat. This process continues until all positions are filled.
*'''[[Cumulative voting | Cumulative Voting]]:''' In this system, a voter facing multiple choices is given X number of ''points''. The voter can then assign his points to one or more of the choices, thus enabling one to weight one's vote if desired. This could be achieved through a normalized [[Ratings ballot|ratings ballot]], or through multiple [[Plurality ballot|plurality ballots]], one per each point allocated. Typically, each voter will have as many votes as there are winners to be selected.
*'''[[Single non-transferable vote]]''': Each voter
*'''Bloc Plurality Voting''': Each voter chooses as many candidates as there are seats to be elected. Add all the votes. Elect the candidates with the most votes until all positions are filled.
