In txt, Golding says that Piggy didn't vote for Jack, as all of the choir did, instead, when Ralph asks for his votes, Piggy reluctantly puts his hand up. Whether or not he really wants it is out of the question, fact is he still voted for Ralph
In the Lord of the Flies, the vote about ghosts was a mockery of Ralph's power.
In Chapter one, The Sound Of The Shell, the boys hold a vote to decide whether to elect Ralph or Jack as their chief, Ralph wins the vote. In chapter five, Beast From Water, Ralph calls an assembly and holds a vote on the question, "Who thinks there may be ghosts?" The vote goes in favour of a belief in ghosts.
Civilization or savagery? Life or death? The decisions that are made during the first meeting are that Ralph is elected to be chief and he appoints Jack to be in charge of his former choir, which Jack decides should in future be hunters. The boys also decide on rules with regard to speaking at the meetings and perhaps most important of all, after Ralph raises the issue, they decide to build a signal fire on the mountain top in the hope of attracting passing ships or planes, with a view to being rescued.
Jack made that statement when his call for a vote of no confidence in Ralph's leadership was ignored by the rest of the boys.
Piggy voted for Ralph to be chief in the novel "Lord of the Flies" by William Golding.

Piggy didn't vote for Ralph in "Lord of the Flies" because he was a loyal supporter of rules and order. He believed that Ralph's leadership qualities were essential for the group's survival on the island. Piggy valued logic and reason, and saw Ralph as the best candidate to lead the boys.
In "Lord of the Flies," after the boys' assembly, only Jack and his choirboys vote for Jack to be chief. This means the majority of the boys, including Ralph, did not vote for Jack to be chief.
Piggy hesitates to vote for Ralph in "Lord of the Flies" because he is fearful of being judged by the other boys and does not want to go against the majority. Piggy lacks the confidence and assertiveness that Ralph possesses, making him more hesitant to openly support Ralph. Additionally, Piggy is constantly overlooked and underestimated by the other boys, leading him to doubt his own opinions and decisions.
The vote was between Jack and Ralph. When all the boys voted they chose Ralph as their leader. :)
Ralph is elected the chief of the boys in "Lord of the Flies" by William Golding. He represents order, leadership, and civilization throughout the novel.
Jack asked the boys, "Who thinks Ralph oughtn't to be chief?" there was no reply so he asked again, "Hands up... whoever wants Ralph not to be chief?" Nobody raised their hand. I'm not sure if this was technically a vote but Jack certainly asked for a vote.
In "Lord of the Flies," the outcome of the vote is a decision to elect Ralph as the leader of the group of boys stranded on the island. This vote represents the initial attempt to establish order and organization among the boys as they struggle to survive.
Ralph is appointed as the chief during a vote but Jack resents this and appoints himself chief of his own rival tribe.
In the Lord of the Flies, the vote about ghosts was a mockery of Ralph's power.
