The consensus of all voters within this faction is shown as the small black cross, and the population's overall consensus is the origin over the entire space, as denoted by the axes. (Note that this is different than claiming the consensus is a "centrist" or "moderate" position. This ideological consensus could very well be in an extreme position, and we just shifted it to the center of the image for simplicity).
In real life elections, we have no information about this abstract ideological space. All we have are the ballots and election results. Nevertheless, such illustrations are helpful to understand what sort of representation is achieved by different voting methods under different scenarios.
