A candidate who is not on the ballot but receives votes anyway.
💡 Explanation:
A write-in candidate is a person who is not listed on the ballot but still receives votes from voters. This can happen for a variety of reasons, such as the candidate's name being misspelled on the ballot, the candidate not being eligible to run for office, or the candidate simply not wanting to be on the ballot.
