HI At an English-speaking democratic meeting, there is sometimes a form of address that invites the audience to take part at the beginning. The word 'aye' is used to show that people are in favour; or 'nay' to show that they are not. The chair of the meeting may formally declare the opinion of the audience.

I think it's the same voice with 'All opposed?':

- All in favour of the meeting coming to order?
- Aye!
- All opposed?
- Nay!
- Ah, meeting is in order.
