An election is a way people can choose their candidate or their preferences in a representative democracy or other form of government.

An election commission is a body charged with overseeing the implementation of electioneering process of any country.

It was held from Monday, December 15, 1788, to Saturday, January 10, 1789, under the new Constitution ratified that same year. George Washington was unanimously elected for the first of his two terms as president and John Adams became the first vice president.

The election process begins with primary elections and caucuses. These are two methods that states use to select a potential presidential nominee. Nominee: the final candidate chosen by a party to represent them in an election.. In general, primaries use secret ballots for voting.

History. The word “poll” means “scalp” or “head”. When votes were taken by gathering people together and counting heads, the place where this was done (sometimes an open field) was called the “polls”. Polling places used to gather and count ballots in elections have changed significantly over the past 250 years.

EVM (Error Vector Magnitude) is the Root Mean Square (RMS) of the error vectors computed and expressed as a percentage of the EVM Normalization Reference.

EVM is generally expressed in percent by multiplying the ratio by 100%. The ideal signal amplitude reference can either be the maximum ideal signal amplitude of the constellation, or it can be the root mean square (RMS) average amplitude of all possible ideal signal amplitude values in the constellation.

Earned Value is also called Budgeted Cost of Work Performed (BCWP). Planned Value (PV) is determined by the cost and schedule baseline. Actual Cost (AC) is determined by the actual cost incurred on the project. Earned Value (EV) tells you, in physical terms, what the project accomplished.

Schedule Performance Index (SPI) Defined The SPI formula found in PMP® exam questions is grounded in the A Guide to the Project Management Body of Knowledge (PMBOK® Guide) definition: “The Schedule Performance Index (SPI) is a measure of schedule efficiency, expressed as the ratio of earned value to planned value.”

Earned value management (EVM) is a project management methodology that integrates schedule, costs, and scope to measure project performance. Based on planned and actual values, EVM predicts the future and enables project managers to adjust accordingly.
