Student government organizations and the McGill Housing and Hospitality Services' Rez Residence Councils can use myInvolvement to host anonymous elections.
...
- Email myinvolvement@mcgill.ca at least two (2) weeks before the start date of the election with the following information:
- election start date & time
- election end date & time
- who can vote in the election (this helps us create the voter eligibility list)
- if any questions are restricted to a sub group (ex. only U1 students can vote for a U1 representative, etc.) and, if so, what those restricted groups are
- Create the election, ballot(s), and question(s). See the Creating an Organization Election instructions on the Engage Support website.
- It's OK for your election to be set to "Active" immediately. The election will not allow voting until the start time and date arrive.
- Use separate ballots to restrict voting to a specific population. For example, if some questions are open to all students in your association but others are restricted by class year, make a ballot with the questions that everyone can vote on and additional ballots for the questions that are restricted by year.
- Once all the election content is created, email myinvolvement@mcgill.ca so that we can review and add the voter eligibility lists to each ballot.
- Send the sharable Election Link with students.
- The Election Link is NOT what is in your browser URL bar. The browser URL will not allow anyone to access the election.
- When editing your election click on the "Publishing Options" tab to find the sharable Election Link:
- Hold your election!
- View your results. See the View Election Results instructions on the Engage Support website and scroll down to "Organization Elections".
