Transfer

Electronic transfer of rights to tangible goods

Transfers of rights by computer while goods are in transit, warehoused or otherwise available
today occurs largely within closed or limited access network systems and within narrowly
defined sectors. It has been proposed that a wide area of trade in goods could take place if
supported by an appropriate international framework for electronic bills of lading, title
documents or security interest transfers. Such a system could build on the EU’s Bolero
experience, Canadian electronic registries, the 1991 UN convention on transport terminals, etc.

Single Transferable Vote (stv) in Election Law

A preferential candidate-centred proportional representation system used in multi-member districts. The voter has one vote and ranks all candidates by preference. When votes are counted, his or her vote is initially given to the candidate of first choice. The vote can then be transferred to the candidate who came second or third, and so on. Any candidate who reaches the quota is elected. If no candidate reaches the quota, whoever is ranked first the least number of times is eliminated. Then it is the turn of candidates ranked second. Votes are tallied again to see if one or more candidates have reached the quota. In case not all seats are filled, votes are redistributed from the least successful candidate who is eliminated, until sufficient candidates are declared elected. One feature of this system is to minimise the number of lost votes as much as possible.

Transfer of Votes in Election Law

A term especially used during elections with several rounds, where a candidate or political party which is eliminated in the first round explicitly asks their supporters to now vote for a different, specific candidate or party. The transfer of votes is considered successful when a significant proportion of voters follows the advice and votes for the specified candidate or list.
