Votebank

Votebank refers to a group of voters who consistently support a particular political party or leader, often based on shared identity, interests, or concerns. These groups tend to vote together in elections, providing a predictable support base for politicians. Politicians pay attention to votebanks because winning their support can be crucial for electoral victory, leading to policies or campaign strategies that favor these groups. The concept highlights the importance of community, ethnicity, religion, or other social factors in shaping voting behavior and electoral outcomes.
