“Recently, cooperatives around the US have experienced a shift in the landscape in which they operate,” states Peter Westerhaus, Vice President SBS. “Co-ops are under increasing pressure to show that fair, unbiased elections are available to all members. In some instances, online voting can be the perfect way to demonstrate transparency in the election process. In Online Voting for Cooperatives, we share how our co-op clients have successfully implemented online voting, how this method can encourage member response and the six steps necessary to add online voting to an election. We encourage anyone who has considered online voting as a solution for their cooperative to attend this educational session.”
