About the Election Platform

Most of the times we face the need to cast our votes during elections, we confront a number of restrictions that don't allow us making the choice we consider to be the best. That's because we can't appoint candidates that we are to vote for, can't distribute our vote to several candidates at a time, we are restricted by age and citizenship, etc. Differently said, instead of voting for "the best", we have to vote for "the least unfavorable".

Of course each of us knows remarkable people among our friends and certainly most of us have role models, whose personalities guide us through life. Unluckily, as long as they are not on the list of candidates in real life elections, we can't vote those we really think are the best.

What if we had the possibility to give our votes to anybody, for example, neighbors or coworkers? This would be a big jump in democracy, wouldn't it? Maybe people would go to an election as to a holy day, to give their vote to people they really trust.

With current IT development, we believe now is the time for a solution, and here comes Election Platform! It discovers a new Democracy, and presents an improved election system, through which everybody can vote for the people he knows and easily become a candidate himself. Election Platform introduces an easy-to-use, transparent, and universal method to elect a team leader in a group or professional community, administrative official in local administration or Parliament, and even perform presidential elections. Election Platform goes beyond the limitations of the voting age, citizenship, race and the number of candidates a person actually votes for. It also allows you to change your voting decision anytime before the election is closed

It is important to note that besides considering the number of votes a certain person accumulates, Election Platform voting system takes into account also the authority (weight) of the electors, by analyzing the votes they got at their turn. Votes cast by people that are themselves "important" weigh more heavily and help to make other people "important." Election Platform respects the fact that other people put trust in you, and takes it into account when you vote for others. At the end, the winner in an election is the person who has the highest authority, and not necessarily the majority of votes.

Election Platform supports any kind of elections involving votes among people. Depending on the need of the electorate, there are allowed several elections types, such as "Closed", "Open with Password", "Open with Invitation", "Open" and "Open for Trusted People". You can find out more about these types on Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) page.

Everyone is welcomed to initiate and perform election campaigns, simply by inviting his/her friends to the voting; this can be done by sending e-mail invitations, choosing from Facebook list of friends or from the list of Election Platform registered members.

Promote your friends and become a winner yourself!
