As we transition to holding board elections online its normal to wonder about the integrity of the ballots and election software.  We researched many services and selected a service that provides a reliable voting platform with the highest level of integrity.  Below are some of the features that protect your vote. 

 

• A voter notice is delivered to each voter, which contains the voter's unique voter link (a website address that contains an access key and takes the voters straight to the ballot).
• An access key (a unique, random combination of 16 individual alpha-numeric characters) is required to access the ballot.
• The access key can be used only once; therefore, voters can only vote once.
• Ballots are encrypted using SSL encryption.
• Administrators can see who voted but are restricted from seeing a voter's individual voting choices. Votes are summarized to show the winner and how many votes were received for each choice on each position or question.
• Voter information is tracked (IP address and voter details) to allow for voting audits.
