Traditionally, EHS teachers had devoted hours of their free time to counting and recounting over one thousand Scantron paper ballots for each school-wide election. For their hard work, teachers were given little praise and were often confronted with questions of tampering by candidates, student voters, and parents. Moreover, by using Scantron ballots, the school invested hundreds of dollars into voting each year only to achieve a mediocre experience. There had to be a better way to conduct elections.

Eisenhower High School chose eduBallot, the first and only voting solution designed specifically for high schools. With eduBallot, school leaders conduct votes for Student Government elections, Homecoming Court, Prom King and Queen, yearbook superlatives, classroom votes, choice-based surveys, and more. Using eduBallot, teachers at EHS no longer needed to spend hours counting ballots as the service provides election results instantaneously. “eduBallot promotes the idea of using technology and allows for secure and reliable results quickly,” said Student Activities Director, Amber Bronson.

Aside from assuring the voting process was secure, Bronson reported “eduBallot is an awesome service that cuts time tremendously. I can set up a ballot within a half an hour and have results back as soon as the voting ends.” By delivering fair and accurate results, eduBallot eased the minds of EHS candidates, student voters, and parents alike.
