What is vying?

The term "vying" is the present participle of the verb "vie," which means to compete eagerly with someone in order to achieve something. It is often used to describe a situation where multiple individuals or groups are striving to attain a position, award, or goal that only one can have. This can occur in various contexts such as sports, business, politics, or any scenario where competition is involved. For example, candidates in an election might be described as vying for voters' support.
