Line 1:
"majority approval filter" or "MAF" is an approval-based primary election method that advances all candidates who are approved by a majority of the electorate, as well as usually selecting an opposition candidate. Voters use an [[W:approval voting|approval voting]] ballot to select which candidates would be acceptable to advance to the general election. If most voters engage in [[W:Bullet voting|bullet voting]], it would ''typically'' select two candidates to advance to a general election.
