What form of roll call vote uses a paper where the member writes yes or no and signs it?

• A. Secret ballot
• B. Show of hands vote
• C. Signed ballot
• D. Session

Answer: (C)

The form being described is a signed ballot, where each member writes their vote (yes or no) on a paper and then signs it. This method records individual votes with the signer’s identity, providing accountability for how each member voted. It’s not a secret ballot, because the signature attaches the vote to the person. This differs from a secret ballot, which keeps votes anonymous, and from a show of hands vote, which uses a physical gesture rather than a paper record, and from any option labeled as a session, which isn’t a voting method at all.
