WHAT DOES DESELECT MEAN IN ENGLISH?

Preselection

Preselection is the process by which a candidate is selected, usually by a political party, to contest an election for political office. It is also referred to as candidate selection. It is a fundamental function of political parties. In countries that adopt Westminster-style responsible government, preselection is also the first step on the path to a position in the executive. Deselection is the opposite procedure: the political party withdraws support from one of their elected office-holders at a subsequent election. The party may then select a new replacement candidate, or it may decide to forgo contesting that seat. The deselected representative is usually free to still contest the election as an Independent or as a representative of another party. An example of a preselection procedure that gains extensive media coverage is the selection of candidates for President of the United States, referred to by one observer as 'the wildest democratic political bazaar in the world'.

Definition of deselect in the English dictionary
