+Absolute majority is a voting requirement where a candidate or measure needs more than half of all votes cast, or more than half of all members entitled to vote, to be successful. This threshold ensures a clear mandate, preventing decisions by a [minority](/wiki/minority). It differs from a [simple majority](/wiki/simple_majority), which only requires more votes for one option than for any other.
