[EM] SODA terminology: opinions wanted.

I keep coming back to the basic question of terminology in SODA. If the
voters delegate their votes, what is the verb for the thing the candidates
do with those delegated votes? I want to be able to say: "Candidate A is
first in the XXXXXing order, so she XXXXXs YYYY for candidates B and C."
YYYY is probably "delegated approvals"; what is XXXX?

Assign? Cast? Commit? Fill in? Inject? Or is one word not enough, and you
need a phrase like "delegated adding order"?

I'd love it if someone could help me find a better option. Even if not, I
need more opinions before I can confidently choose one of the above options.
