Answer 1

Answer:

General election

Explanation:

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's primary legislative body, as distinguished from by-elections and local elections.

In U.S. politics, general elections are elections held at any level (e.g. city, county, congressional district, state) that typically involve competition between at least two parties. General elections occur every two to six years (depending on the positions being filled with most positions good for four years) and include the presidential election, but unlike parliamentary systems the term can also refer to special elections that fill out positions prematurely vacated by the previous office holder (e.g. through death, resignation, etc.).

Answer 2

Answer:

• An election where a political subdivision, such as a city, county or a state, is subdivided and one candidate is elected to a particular office from that sub-unit (referred to as a precinct or district) is called: single member district election.                                                                                      

Explanation:

• The United States is comprised of many different states, and each state is divided in to into  different districts and so on for the better implementation of the constitutional rules and regulations, and to make it more easy to regulate the whole system more easily there are different ways in which the officials,  commissioner, or any citizen is given the office and that is through the process of single member district elections in this case.
