Stand-in voter (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

proxy

(Other definitions for proxy that I've seen before include "Stand-in, agent" , "Agent (for eg voting)" , "One voting on behalf of another" , "Authorised substitution" , "Authority to represent another" .)

I've seen this clue in The Wall Street Journal.
