You want your members to know and trust the process <em>and<\/em> the results. But sometimes you also want to protect the privacy of individual choices. There&#8217;s also the chance of human error if making a group decision the old-fashioned way \u2013 by a show of hands, or by counting scraps of paper.<\/p>\n<p>That&#8217;s why <strong>Pete Westerhaus<\/strong> and <strong>Tony Hoff<\/strong> are with us today to talk about the benefits of using an electronic balloting system like the one Survey and Ballot Systems offers. Their <a href=\"https:\/\/www.surveyandballotsystems.com\/directvotelive\/\">DirectVoteLive<\/a> platform is a cloud-based system of conducting elections or voting on initiatives.<\/p>\n<p>Pete, an account manager for Survey and Ballot Systems, and Tony, their marketing director, explain how software like <a href=\"https:\/\/www.surveyandballotsystems.com\/directvotelive\/\">DirectVoteLive<\/a> makes balloting in any size association easy, quick, and most importantly, secure.<\/p>\n<p>This is a topic we&#8217;ve never broached before, but given the larger climate these days, we felt it was important to address, if only to get associations thinking about the integrity of their own elections and decision-making processes.<\/p>\n<p>[podcast player]<\/p>\n<p>Interested in appearing on the podcast?
