Frequently asked questions
Are there requirements to be eligible to vote?
Yes, there are. The Elections Committee decides the voting eligibility criteria. You can use the AccountEligibility tool to quickly verify your voting eligibility.
How many times may I vote?
The rule is: one person, one vote. If you have multiple accounts that meet the voter requirement, you can still only vote once. Votes from multiple accounts belonging to the same individual will be struck. To meet the editor voting eligibility, your contributions will be counted across all wikis, if it’s your home-wiki or any other.
If you inadvertently vote twice, you should contact the Elections Committee and ask for the additional votes to be struck.
If you decide to change your vote, you may do so up until the moment the vote closes. This can be because you have changed your mind or if you have made a mistake. Simply vote again and your previous vote will be struck.
How does the STV on SecurePoll work?
Depending on the platform you are using to vote, you will see either drop-down selections or a drag-and-drop interface.
In both interfaces, the voting software requires you to rank at least one candidate.
| If you are voting through the web, you will encounter a drag-and-drop interface | If you are voting through mobile or if you don’t have Javascript enabled, you will encounter a drop-down selection |
|---|---|

You can re-vote in the election, which will overwrite your previous vote. You can do this as many times as you like up until the moment the vote closes.
How does transferring votes work? Why shouldn't I rank every candidate?
The voting system is meant to allow voters to rank candidates in the order of preference. Ranking a candidate means that the voter is willing to support that candidate if the higher-ranked candidates are either elected or eliminated.
During the tallying process, votes are initially allocated to each voter's top-ranked candidate. If that candidate is elected with surplus votes or eliminated due to insufficient support, the vote is transferred to the next ranked candidate, and so on.
For example, imagine a voter ranks candidates A, B, C, and D, but not E or F. If candidates A, B, and C are either elected or eliminated, the vote would be transferred to candidate D. If D is also elected or eliminated, and the voter did not rank E or F, the vote becomes exhausted and is no longer transferred. To indicate willingness to support E or F, the voter should rank them as well.
How do I know who to vote for?
You can use the following resources to decide who to vote for:
- Click their names to review their applications
- Watch the candidates' video statements
Why are only some of the answers in the candidate application translated?
In order to help with voter evaluation, translations are being made available in a number of languages. Translations will be made available for the required questions. The optional questions and answers were intentionally not marked for translation in the template or candidate profile pages for capacity reasons.
I can see the usernames of the voters. Can I or others see how I voted?
The voter list is public; you can see who has cast a vote. This list is used by the scrutineers to make sure all the votes are valid. However, no one can see how someone voted; your vote is not attributable to you.
