5 stepsPolling — Your Steps
If you want to organize your poll under a personal topic — like "The Maplewood Film Festival" or "The SIAC Fan's Choice MVP Award" — create it here first. Topics are personal categories only you can assign to your polls.
Create your poll — add the items, candidates, or options people will be voting on. Assign a topic or system category if you'd like it grouped. This is the foundation of every vote2sort event.
That's it! Once your poll is ready, it's ready to share.
Elections — Your Steps
Start by creating your election — give it a name, define the voting window, and configure the rules. Once your election exists, polls and contests can be assigned to it.
Build the list of candidates, nominees, or choices that voters will see on their ballot. You'll assign this poll or contest to your election here.
Your poll or contest is already assigned to the ballot from the Polls & Contests screen. Use this screen to set the display order and finalize how the ballot will appear to voters.
Upload or manage your voter list — define who is authorized to participate in this election. You control access.
Send email notifications to your voters. This step generates each voter's unique voting link and delivers it to their inbox — voting cannot begin until this step is complete.
