I believe the answer is:

<span class="explanation-format__ClueExplanation">'<span class="explanation-format__original">votes in</span>' is the definition.<br/ ><span class="explanation-format__explanation">(I've seen this in another clue)</span><br/ ><br/ >This is all the clue.<br/ ></span>
(Other definitions for elects that I've seen before include "Chooses by vote" , "Appoints through voting system" , "Selects by ballot" , "Appoints via he ballot box" , "Appoints to position in ballot" .)
