Changelog

A result page full of long tables is hard to announce from. Each position now opens with its leading three candidates, a chart, and coloured bars, and the full table is one tap away.

The headline numbers sit above the position list, you can export a branded PDF for your records, and a ranked contest can be read round by round. Payment figures stay off the public page.

Your returning officer declares the result, not your software.

Results now show the counts and the shares and nothing more. No winner badge, no candidate marked as elected. Counting honestly is our job. Declaring the outcome under your own constitution is yours.

The country and region maps in Voting Insights now open straight away, even on a slow connection, and a newly supported country appears as soon as its boundaries are published.

• See every payment on an event, filtered by status and purpose and searchable by reference. Who voted stays hidden.
• Your cookie choice now decides everything. Analytics follow it, you get a setting on your account, and ballots are never recorded.
• Take your data with you. Export your whole account as a ZIP, or ask us to delete it.
• Close candidate and voter registration at different times, with clear messages on the public pages either way.
• Spot an unusual connection. A public vote carries a note when the browser and the country do not line up. It never stops anyone voting.

Settings that were scattered across the event now sit in one workspace, covering the ballot, voters, votes, your timeline, your plan, and pricing.

You can also change the email address on your account, with a confirmation step and a note to the old address.

A checklist on every voting event tracks what still needs doing before you can open voting, and ticks itself off as you go.

Each table has its own settings too, so candidates, voters, positions, groups, sponsors, votes, and result reporting are set up where you manage them. Candidates and voters registering in public no longer have to type an event code either. The link already knows which event they are joining.

Running the same election every year? Import it from the last one. Groups come across, you can change candidates, positions, and voters as they arrive, and you can email invites to the people you brought over.

Bad email addresses are flagged as you go and a failed email can be sent again rather than quietly lost. Clearing out a large list runs in the background, so it no longer times out on you.

Not every organisation has an email address for every member. Voters can now be identified by a matriculation number, a staff ID, or any code you already use, and a voting links page gathers everything you need to hand out.

Signing in is protected against bots, your event timeline is checked so you cannot save an end before a start, and result breakdowns show more of the picture.

Pepvote runs elections, polls, and awards, so everything you create is now a voting event rather than an election.

Group mode arrived with it. Sort voters and positions into groups such as faculties, chapters, or departments, and your results are sectioned the same way. Public registration, public results, registration windows, and choice limits landed alongside it.
