When you vote A over B in approval, this means that you have voted for A 
and against B - that is, you have put a cross next to A, and nothing 
next to B - or in your words, A is a 'choice', and B is not a choice.

In approval you have no incentive to diapprove of your favourite and 
approve of someone else. Is this any clearer?

I'd write more, but I'd like some indication that you're actually 
listening first. *shrug*
