What is another word for runoff election?
Pronunciation: [ɹˈʌnɒf ɪlˈɛkʃən] (IPA) 
A runoff election is a type of election used when no candidate in a race receives a majority of the votes. In this situation, the two candidates who received the most votes in the first round of voting will face off in a second round to determine the winner. The term "runoff election" is a widely accepted term, but there are other synonyms that can be used to describe this type of election. These synonyms include secondary election, follow-up election, second round, decider, and tiebreaker. All of these terms describe the same process of a second round of voting to determine a winner when no candidate has received a majority of the votes in the first round.
