Faggot voter Hireling eligible to vote as nominal titleholder of part of a subdivided property For information on gay and lesbian voters, see Pink vote. A faggot voter or faggot was a person who qualified to vote in an election with a restricted suffrage only by the exploitation of loopholes in the regulations.

Faggot voting was a common electoral abuse in the United Kingdom until the electoral reforms of the late 19th century.
