Online voting for HOAs
Online voting for HOAs, where your documents permit it
Electronic voting can raise participation, but only where your governing documents and applicable rules allow it. CommunityVote is designed to support that choice with careful controls.
Who it is for: Boards considering electronic or hybrid voting.
Capabilities
What it is designed to help with
Eligibility-based access
Voters are checked against the frozen voter list before receiving a ballot.
Separated identity and ballot data
The system is designed so that voter identity records and ballot records are not joined by a shared key.
Participation, not choices
Staff see who has participated in aggregate counts, not how individuals voted.
Accessible voter pages
Mobile-first pages built with keyboard and screen reader use in mind.
