Answer:This is known as a Consensus vote

Step-by-step explanation:

Consensus decision making depends on reaching a decision that will satisfy everyone, it is about making sure that everyone agrees with the decision that is about to be taken. It is not about majority rules but finding mutual ground or taking a decision that everyone can live with even if they may not support it.

This means that everyone can have their ideas and opinions taken into consideration. This means paying attention to everyone and reaching a conclusion that works for all.

In consensus decision making if one person or minority group doesn't agree with a decision then it will not be implemented. This is useful in building an equitable society.
