Answer 1

Answer:

Answered by Waymaker

• Direct election is a system of choosing political officeholders in which the voters directly cast ballots for the persons or political party that they desire to see elected. ... By contrast, in an indirect election, the voters elect a body which in turn elects the officeholder in question.

Answer 2

Answer:

There are three basic types -- primary, general and local.

Primary elections, often abbreviated to primaries, are a process by which voters can indicate their preference for their party's candidate, or a candidate in general, in an upcoming general election, local election, or by-election.

A general election is a political voting election where generally all or most members of a given political body are chosen. These are usually held for a nation, state, or territory's primary legislative body, and are different from by-elections.

In many parts of the world, local elections take place to select office-holders in local government, such as mayors and councillors. Elections to positions within a city or town are often known as "municipal elections". Their form and conduct vary widely across jurisdictions.
