Definition from own experience or research:
гласач кој не е лојален на одредена партија и кој ги преминува партиските линии при избор на кандидат

Example sentence(s):
  • Но, тука се отвора важното прашање: а зарем неопределените гласачи немаат право да кажат: „и двајцата кандидати не го задоволуваат мојот вкус и останувам надвор од овој избор“. Секако дека имаат. - Дневник  
  • Деновиве ги читаме анкетите, наводно се уште имало неопределени гласачи. - А1  
  • Според тоа, подобриот коалициски потенцијал на СДСМ, кој се обидува да формира т.н. евроатлантски фронт во кој би влегле помалите партии што, сепак, располагаат со влијателни и искусни раководства, може да претставува магнет за дел од неопределените гласачи и да ја зголеми неизвесноста околу исходот од изборната трка и неговото артикулирање во идната извршна власт. - Глобус Магазин
