eBallot offers a revolutionary online ballot management wizard that makes setting-up a ballot easy. With simple point-and-click and copy-and-paste tools, you can setup your ballots in minutes.
Our Ballot Management Wizard alleviates the need to participate in a lengthy ballot consultation and design process, like those offered by expensive 3rd party election management firms. Our self-service ballot management system will save you time and money.
Whether you require a standard preference ballot or a complex ballot, eBallot delivers. Using our powerful set of design tools, you can determine the look, feel, requirements, rules and layout for your ballots. Our robust ballot-level features include:
- Write-in Votes – Choose whether your ballot accepts write-in votes
- Candidate Shuffling – Randomize the order of candidates and choices for each ballot question
- Ballot Formatting – Microsoft-like toolbars enable you to bold, italicize and underline ballot text
- Tiered Ballots – Tie together multiple ballots and enable voters to participate in some or all of them depending on their access levels
- Optional/Required Selections – Setup ballot questions to be required or optional
- Customized Instructions – Create custom directions for each question/position on your ballot
- Column Formatting - Customize the ballot layout to allow for one or two column presentation of choices
- Page Settings - Choose the # of ballot questions displayed per page
- Integrated Candidate Biographies - Include links from the ballot to graphic-rich candidate biographies
Ballot Certification and Error-checking Ensure That Your Ballot is Perfect  With eBallot, the guesswork of setting-up a ballot is eliminated. eBallot ensures that an incomplete or erroneous ballot cannot be activated and voted on.
Our one-of-a-kind Ballot Lock-Down feature displays all the ballot components that need to be configured correctly. As you setup your ballot, the system automatically tracks your progress and notifies you of which ballot settings are complete and which are not.
Upon completion ballot configuration, the eBallot system will automatically inspect your ballot to ensure that your ballot has no errors or omissions and is ready to be activated. Once the ballot has been activated, our Ballot Security System ensures that no changes can be made. This feature helps to defend against claims that ballots/biographies were changed once an elections has started. Tailored Ballots Prevent Voting Errors and Ballot Irregularities
eBallot also eliminates the submission of bad or mis-marked ballots, which often plague traditional paper-based ballots. Because each ballot question or position is configured with your specialized requirements, each vote is checked and verified prior to final approval and submission into our secure results database. Our user-side error-handling system will prompt voters to make changes if errors were made during the voting process. Online voting will eliminate election controversies and hanging chads.
3rd-Party Ballot Management Options If your by-laws don’t allow for in-house management of your ballots and do require 3rd-party ballot setup, you can leverage our own election management services offered by our CustomBallot Consulting Division.
