Condominium and homeowner associations often face challenges meeting quorum requirements for board elections and membership votes. Skypunch simplifies the election process while increasing participation through secure, accessible HOA electronic voting designed specifically for association governance.
Key HOA Voting Capabilities:
Weighted ballots for HOA voting
Skypunch's HOA voting software supports weighted voting, allowing ownership across multiple units or properties to be accurately reflected in each member’s ballot. This way, election outcomes align precisely with the association’s governing documents and ownership structure.
Hybrid HOA elections
Skypunch supports hybrid election environments, including paper ballot entry, in-person kiosk voting at annual meetings, and real-time nomination handling during live sessions. This flexibility ensures compliance with bylaws while preserving the efficiency of digital tabulation.
Proxy Voting
When a proxy voter votes on behalf of someone else, the only modification needed is to set the proxy voter's email address to that of the actual voter. That gives the proxy voter the ability to fetch the ballot access link for that other voter and vote on their behalf.
Quick-view of the HOA voting process
- Check your bylaws and state law. HOA voting is often regulated by state law, so be sure to confirm that electronic voting is an option where you live.
- Create and manage your election. Use the Skypunch election management console to carry out your election.
- Accept proxy votes. An election manager will need to update, either on-demand or in bulk, those voter records that will be voted by a proxy voters so that the proxy voter's email address is being used on those record.
- Report the results. Results are available immediately at the close of voting which could very well mean they are presented in real time at an Annual Meeting.
HOAs will often test electronic voting for HOAs with a single budget vote before they move a full board election online. Skypunch is a dependable HOA voting software choice either way, since one platform handles a quick amendment vote and a conteted multi-seat race with the same setup.
