Refrained from voting (9)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

abstained

<span class="explanation-format__ClueExplanation">'<span class="explanation-format__original">refrained from voting</span>' is the definition.<br/ ><span class="explanation-format__explanation">(I've seen this in another clue)</span><br/ ><br/ >This is the entire clue.<br/ ></span>

(Other definitions for abstained that I've seen before include "chose not to vote" , "kept dry" , "went on the wagon" , "was non-committal" , "avoided port?" .)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard and the King Feature Syndicate.
