A plurality is an electoral system where the candidate with the most votes wins, even if they have not received a majority (more than 50%) of the votes. This is different from a majority system where the winner must receive over 50% of the votes. A runoff election is when there is no clear winner after the first election and a second election is held between the top two candidates. A recall election is a special election to remove a politician from office before their term is over.
