Change an Election's Status
As an election moves through the election cycle—from its initial appearance on the election schedule to the completion of post-election processing—you move the corresponding election record in your Voter Focus database through a series of four (possibly five) stages. We use the term election status to refer to an election's current stage in the election cycle.
- Ensure that the election is the focused election. If not, click Change Election Status on the Console and select the election.
- Go to:
ELECTIONS > Maintain Election Settings > Election Maintenance > Change Status/Default
or
ELECTIONS > Change Election Status
- On the Election Status dialog, select the new election status.
- Click Save.
To learn more about the different statuses, see Election's Status.
