This ballot allows anyone with the link to vote. Our duplicate vote deterrence feature makes it more difficult for users to vote more than once but will not prevent a determined person. We recommend leaving this option enabled unless the vote is being conducted on shared devices or if it’s a sample ballot for voter education. If you need stronger security, choose “Restrict who votes” on the setup page.

By default, ballots will list the candidates in the order entered below. You can choose to randomize the order, in which case each voter will receive a ballot with candidates in a different randomized ballot order. Random order can even out any favoring of candidates listed at the top of the ballot.
