All of the inclusions within our online voting tool are designed to streamline management, with the option of adding a group of up to twenty voters to each election or voting process. Administrators can upload a contact list or add the details for each eligible voter to their digital account and ensure all participants receive a secure web link or email communication to their preferred device.

Including additional details, such as a headshot and biography, helps voters understand how to cast their ballot and see what each potential nominee or representative offers or aims to achieve. Our voting form builder allows you to include candidate bios on your ballots. Election management can decide how much or little information to include on the page but can adapt this to their election process, such as permitting candidates a fixed word count to summarize the key points in their manifesto or clarify why they wish to be elected

Depending on the nature of the election, voters or members may be permitted to nominate write-in candidates on the form; these are candidates who haven't appeared on the original ballot but are eligible to run or have been put forward by another participant. Our platform enables voters or administrators to add and verify write-in candidates directly through the free voting software.

An election notice is essential and sets out all the terms and rules, usually dictated by the governing documentation behind the organization or group. For example, a notice could detail the date and time cut-offs for a live polls, explain how voters can submit ballots in person or online, and highlight when and how each eligible voter can find out more about the position, role, or decision they are voting on.

ElectionBuddy is a specialist online voting software provider with an extensive library of templates, forms, and designs. Our online poll make too enables officials to create customized information, add logos and details to their digital ballots, or use integrations to expedite the admin tasks that often have the heaviest time burden when running an election.

Our innovative free poll tool allows organizations to handle abstentions, where a voter decides to withhold a vote or doesn't wish to participate for any reason. This may be because a voter or committee member doesn't want to submit their vote for personal reasons, perceives a potential conflict of interest, or isn't technically eligible to vote in this particular decision due to their position or because they have already nominated a candidate or seconded a motion.
