Field

Explanation

Graphical Vote Display If configured as part of Vote Manager, use the Graphical Vote Display for this meeting type. This will enable the option for Administrators to use the Graphical Vote Display in addition to the Classical Public Display.

Vote Display Result to Public

This field dictates what and how the public display should display vote results.

The option includes:

·         None - Selected by default (nothing is displayed)

·         Real Time - Shows real time votes coming in.

·         After Close Details - Shows vote result with voting details.

·         After Close Results – Only shows the result.

Note: These options are only for the text-based public display screen. The Voting graphical public display is not affected by these options.

Vote Result Timer

If using the Voting graphical public display, this field dictates how long to show a vote result, before returning to the logo screen.

Vote Display Result to Admins

This is a placeholder for a future feature.

Vote Display Result to Participants/Contributors

This is a placeholder for a future feature.

Who Manages Voting

This is a placeholder for a future feature.

Voter List Order

This field sets the order that voting members will be displayed during a recorded vote. This is also the order that the votes will be printed in the minutes.

Options are:

·         None (displays in order of attendee group)

·         Ascending (display alphabetically A-Z)

·         Descending (display alphabetically Z-A)

·         Shuffle (Display in a randomly generated order)

·         Chair Last (Display alphabetically A-Z, but with Chairperson  name displayed last)

Moving / Seconding: Select First Name? If selected, the first voting member to submit their request that they are moving the motion, and the first voting member to submit their request that they are seconding the motion, will be automatically selected. Otherwise, the Chair/Administrator can pick from a list of voting members that have requested to be the mover/seconder for each motion.
Tie-Breaker

If a Tie Breaker is enabled in the meeting’s attendee group, there are two options to manage when and how the Tie Breaker votes. If using Vote Manager, the Tie Breaker will be presented with a ballot depending on the configuration options selected. If not using Vote Manager, the Administrator will either always choose the Tie Breaker’s vote or only choose it when there is a tie.

Vote During Tie – The designated Tie Breaker will only be asked for their vote in the event of a tie.

Always Votes - The designated Tie Breaker will always vote on all motions. However, their vote will only be used to calculate a result if the motion is a tie. Their name will appear in bold if used for the result calculation.
