A Protest vote is a vote cast in an election to demonstrate the caster's unhappiness with the choice of candidates or the current political system. It can be formulated in several ways:
- Voting for a minority or fringe candidate which has no chance of election.
- Posting a blank ballot paper.
- Spoiling the ballot paper.
- Selecting a "None of the Above" option, if one exists.
