Credit Union Voting & Elections

Who We Help

Credit Union Elections

An Overview

Credit Unions are more than just a financial services provider. As democratically governed institutions, they have a responsibility to their membership to uphold the integrity of their voting process. Managing elections and votes, however, can prove challenging - especially when quorums need to be met and members want their voices heard.

Issues with Voter Location

Having a geographically scattered member base can make it difficult to meet as a whole. It also adds complexities to a typical voting process including:

Implementing paper voting methods
Creating special ballots for individuals and committees
Voting as a group when some members are in categories with their own candidates or questions

Mixed Voting Methods

Credit Unions often have their own voting process with paper and digital methods that can complicate voting. These issues include:

Members that insist on paper ballots
Manually counting, recounting, and auditing the paper vote
Making sure both paper and electronic systems work as one instead of two disjointed tabulations
