The Focused Election
Many functions in Voter Focus require you to select the election against which the function will apply. Instead of having to do this for every function, users with the permission ChangeElectionFocus can concentrate on a specific election by selecting a focused election for their workstation. Any activities you perform will be done for your focused election, saving you from having to select the election during task.
The focused election is different from the default election. The default election applies system-wide, while the focused election is for the user’s workstation only.
For users who have not been granted the permission ChangeElectionFocus, their focused election is the default election.
