E-Mail Election
-
Version
4.3
Setup your own election for Town Mayor, Class
President, Cheerleader, PTA Chairperson, Tribal
Council, Church Council Candidates, Astronomy Club
Leader, or any kind of election you like.
Begin by signing up for your free e-mail election
account and establishing a login name and password.
Next, go to the build page and begin building your
voter's ballot with as many voting measures and/or
candidates as you like. Then submit a list of your
voters' private e-mail addresses along with the date
you have scheduled for voting and a one time fee, if
required, and that's it. The e-mail addresses you
submit will be held in the strictness of secrecy and
will only be used for your special election. On or
prior to the date of the election, depending on how
you've set it up, an e-mail you've composed will be
sent out to each person on your e-mail address list.
Each e-mail will contain a special web link
specifically for them. When the voter clicks on this
web link the voter's ballot will be displayed. The
voter will then complete their ballot and click on
the ballot submission button when finished.
After the vote has been cast the voter may
again click on their web link to view a special menu
of post voting choices. The first menu choice allows
a voter to see the incoming voting results as the
votes are counted. All vote counting is done
automatically at the instant when each vote is cast
so every voter can see the election results at the
same time by simply displaying this web site during
the election. The second menu choice allows a voter
to pull up their own ballot to verify how they voted.
The third and final menu choice allows any voter to
pull up all the finished ballots one at a time and
count the ballots if needed. It is also possible to
print a copy of each finished ballot to establish a
paper trail of the election. Remember that ballots
pulled up will contain no personal information so
each voter's choices will always remain confidential.
