Voting for the 2011/2012 Council election is now closed.
The online ballot was conducted using systems contracted from Everyone Counts Inc., which runs under high-security, SSL level, 256-bit encryption with anti-fraud controls and secure login for eligible voters. This third-party system protects the anonymity of a vote. Election results were only made available to APEGBC after the close of the election on September 30, 2011 at 12:00pm. Paper ballots were provided to members upon request.
Three registered members of the Association, Dennis McJunkin PEng FEC, Bill Gilmartin PEng FEC and Phil Sunderland PEng FEC scrutinized the electronic and paper voting processes. The scrutineers have confirmed the ballot results and that the election was conducted in a confidential, fair and impartial manner.
This year, response from the membership improved slightly over last year with 23.8% of registered members returning ballots.
