Poll refers to a system where polling paper is distributed among the members present at the meeting, in person or by proxy, to have the voting right in the poll in proportion of the number of shares held by each of them. The advantages of such a method of voting are:
1. It is easy to count and arrange in sets.
2. It is in writing.
3. Even proxies are considered in such type of voting.
4. It is the most ideal form of voting when the member group is large and heterogeneous.
