Managed Elections

If you require an independent firm to run your entire voting event or if you prefer full service project management, our managed election service is your solution. Simply Voting staff are professional online voting experts and have developed best practices specific to each industry. You can sit back and relax knowing that your election is being completely managed by a neutral party that specializes in online voting.

 

How It Works

Simply Voting will assign a dedicated election consultant to fully manage your voting event. This primary point of contact will work closely with you to ensure that your election is successful and meets your objectives. After an initial interview the consultant will put together a project plan that outlines requirements, tasks and deadlines.

Simply Voting staff will then set up the voting system according to the specifications provided. This generally includes branding the voting website, ballot creation, and preparation of the list of electors. Depending on your requirements, we may also generate unique passwords for each elector, integrate with your organization's existing authentication method, or schedule mass-emails containing personalized voting instructions and reminders to vote.

If a mass-mailing is required, Simply Voting will print a letter containing the voter's address, your logo, and personalized voting instructions for online voting. The letter is folded and inserted inside a high-security window envelope, then sent via USPS as First Class Mail or via Canada Post as lettermail. Your personnel will never have access to voter passwords and the integrity of your election is safeguarded.

Your election consultant will always provide previews of the online ballot and any communication materials for your feedback and approval.

During the election, Simply Voting staff will actively monitor the election to ensure that everything is working as intended. The consultant will handle day-to-day election administration and report on mid-election turnout. Following the election, the consultant will deliver the voting results, an audit trail, as well as any other reports required.
