Yes, a common method for electing multiple positions on the same ballot, such as trustees, is the use of ranked-choice voting or single transferable vote (STV). In ranked-choice voting, voters rank candidates in order of preference, and votes are redistributed until the required number of candidates is elected. STV allows voters to express preferences for multiple candidates, ensuring that votes contribute to electing multiple representatives proportionately. Both methods can help ensure that the election reflects the voters' preferences more accurately.
