What it is

Election Runner lets schools and organizations set up cloud-based elections that voters can access on the web or through iOS and Android apps. Administrators can create ballots with questions, candidates, or measures, add photos or short biographies, and apply organizational logos and colors without HTML or CSS. Voter lists and ballot details can be imported from Excel or CSV files. Elections can start immediately or run on a scheduled timetable. Each voter receives a distinct Voter ID and Voter Key and can cast one vote. Results are calculated automatically, displayed in charts, and available for real-time monitoring. Election Runner says it uses SSL-grade security with 256-bit encryption; by default, administrators cannot see how an individual voted. Its voting application targets Section 508 and WCAG 2.0 AA compliance. A free election supports up to 20 voters. Elections for up to 100 voters cost $19, and those for up to 300 voters cost $36, with payment at launch. Pricing for larger elections is calculated from the eligible voter count.
