faggot voten.

Brit.

/ˈfaɡət vəʊt/, U.S.

/ˈfæɡət ˌvoʊt/

Forms: see faggot n. and vote n.¹

Origin: Apparently formed within English, by compounding. Etymons: faggot n., vote n.¹

Etymology: < faggot n. + vote n.¹, probably originally showing a transferred use of faggot n. 7, the voter hence being a ‘dummy’ voter, but subsequently interpreted as showing the primary sense ‘bundle (of sticks)’ as a result of association of the term with the practice (forbidden in 7 & 8 Will. III. c. 25) of subdividing a single tenement among a number of nominal owners.

British Politics. Now historical.

A vote for a particular candidate or party fraudulently contrived by nominally transferring sufficient property to a person who would not otherwise be qualified to vote. Also in extended use: any vote considered to be biased or unfairly influenced. Cf. faggot n. 9.
