ElectionBuddy

ElectionBuddy helps organizations run virtual and in-person elections, votes, and meetings, from notifying voters through recording ballots, calculating outcomes, and announcing winners. Voters can participate remotely or during a meeting using a cellphone, computer, tablet, or mail. Supported systems include first past the post, cumulative, preferential ballot, STV, scored voting, rating scale, and approval voting. Organizers can customize ballots with multiple vacancies, randomized candidate or question order, edited descriptions, amendments, documents, and website links. Notifications can use email, mail, text, or an organization's existing channels. Listed integrations include Microsoft Azure SSO, WordPress, Zapier, and Zoom; APIs and webhooks connect voter lists and voting or registration activity with other systems. Results and voting processes can be independently reviewed and downloaded for inquiries or recounts while preserving voter anonymity. ElectionBuddy requires HTTPS with TLS and HSTS and encrypts payment data before sending it to Stripe. Customers own account data and can export it in XML, CSV, and Microsoft Excel formats. It supports Android, iOS, and web. Free options allow up to 20 voters; paid options include pay-per-use elections and meetings and annual subscriptions.
