Not much, I assume, from your statement. First, people break into groups according to their party affiliation, they then vote on candidates using paper and pen, put the votes in a box, and the votes are counted by a group of people who check and double check before results are reported. Also, additions or subtractions to party platforms are discussed and voted on.
