If you are having problems you can send executive@oreio.org an email. That said, if you're membership wasn't active as of yesterday then you will not have received the poll unfortunately. The email went out to all 375 active members this morning.

I didn't receive the email with the poll, and I want to participate, today I have been sending emails to OREIO but I don't have an answer.

Thank you

Katie Daniels

Yes, the election is now open until this evening at 11:59pm. All OREIO members with a valid membership (375 in total) should have already seen the poll email this morning. I see votes are already pouring in. I will close the poll at 11:59pm tonight and then prepare an announcement email for tomorrow morning, June 18th.

I've received several emails from folks about the poll. Wild Apricot doesn't allow us to see who voted for who, or change votes, or reset votes. All we are able to see is how many people voted, the tally of votes per candidate, and which email addresses opened the poll email and clicked on the poll link. 

Hope this helps!

Best of luck to all candidates!

Brad

Thanks John, that helps.

So the software (or whatever it's called haha) being used for the emails and vote tabulation is Wild Apricot?

I will wait for Brad to clarify, but this is my current understanding of the voting process.

There will be a poll that opens at midnight tonight and will be open/available to accept responses for 24 hours.

Everyone who is an active member will get an email sent to the email registered on this site once the poll opens (check your spam filters) with a link to the poll.

The responses are tabulated automatically by the website engine, so there is no need for manual counting. 

The results of the poll will be emailed to the current executive (after the poll closes at midnight) and then if there are no concerns, then someone... likely me, will post the results to the forum and also sent out to the membership.

Hope that clarifies certain things. Anything else I leave to Brad for further clarification/details.

Cheers,

I've made a similar request. Hopefully this information comes out shortly.
