Voting takes place electronically via the Internet. Where electronic voting is provided for, it excludes any other means of expressing the vote. The Association may also organise a postal vote for one or more sections. In this case, the elector may only vote by one of these two methods. Voters may not, on pain of invalidity of their vote, change or separate the names of a pair of candidates, or…
The use of electronic Internet voting is organised in compliance with the fundamental principles governing electoral operations, access to the vote for all voters, the secrecy of the ballot, the free and anonymous personal nature of the vote, the integrity of the votes cast, effective monitoring of the ballot and a posteriori control by the election judge. The right of access is exercised through the Conseil national de l’ordre des…
At least fifteen days before the election, the president of the regional or central council concerned by this election shall make available to the electors: 1° The dates and times of the opening and closing of the ballot ; 2° The list of pairs of candidates and their substitutes is ordered alphabetically by a letter drawn by lot by the national council. The names of the pairs are ordered from…
To vote electronically, the voter, after logging on to the voting system, identifies himself using his code and password, casts his vote and validates it. The validation of the vote makes it final and prevents any modification. Transmission of the vote and the voter’s signature are subject to an electronic acknowledgement of receipt showing the date of receipt.
If a postal vote is provided for, the mailing referred to in article D. 4233-13 shall also include the relevant instructions and voting materials.
After having indicated on the ballot paper the pairs of candidates or the candidates they choose, the elector sends his sealed vote in the special envelope provided. This envelope bears the name and address of the council or delegation concerned by the election, as well as the voter’s identification. The elector must not, on pain of nullity of his vote, make any other mention or sign whatsoever on the ballot…
The votes are counted at the Council’s head office, on the day of the election provided for in article D. 4233-7. It is carried out by a polling station set up for the election of each Council. The polling station is chaired by a member of the Council appointed by its Chairman, on the recommendation of the Council’s Executive Committee. The chairman of the polling station appoints the members of…
If a postal vote has been organised, the envelopes used to cast the vote are counted before the count provided for in article D. 4233-15-3, as and when they are received, in the electoral register referred to in article D. 4233-12. This enrolment prohibits the subsequent recording of any electronic votes cast by the same elector. At the start of the count, the polling station checks that the number of…
The chairman of the polling station draws up and signs a report of the voting and counting operations. As soon as these minutes have been drawn up, the chairman of the polling station shall announce the result of the vote. If an insufficient number of pairs or full and alternate members can be declared elected, a new election will be held in the same way to appoint the missing members.
The original minutes of the voting and counting operations with its appendices, the media files including the copy of the source programmes and executable programmes, the count, results and backup files, as well as the electoral documents mentioned in articles D. 4233-13, D. 4233-15 and D. 4233-15-1 are kept under seal, under the supervision of a national commission for the control of electronic voting operations, the composition of which is…
