A
confidence vote is a way to determine if people trust or have faith in someone or something. It's like giving them a test to see if they have enough support to continue in their position or to prove their abilities. If they pass the
confidence vote, it means the majority of people believe in them. If they fail, it means people do not have enough trust in them.
