Left: water 氵, right: vote 票 (In the west 西 you show 示 at a vote.)

Water 'voted' to let things float.

氵	water	The radical sanzui* 氵 is a short form of water 水*
票	vote, ballot	It is flat 一, there can be two \|\| next to each other and it is flat 口 and you show 示 it: The note at a ballot.
西	west	The upper stroke 一 can be seen as horizon, with a variation of sun 日 and two legs 儿, which here stand for a downward motion: Below the horizon sinks the sun (at sunset) in the west.
礻	to show, altar	The radical shimesu* is a simplification of show 示, which is a pictogram of an altar.*
