Printable Election Ballot in 30 Seconds

The organization's name and the date up top, one plain instruction line ('fill in ONE bubble per office'), then a labeled section per office with the nominated names and a write-in line each. Close with any motions as yes/no blocks. That's the whole sheet — anything more is clutter between a member and their mark.

No — never. EZdoc ballots are for private and informal votes only: clubs, HOAs, committees, PTAs, and classrooms. The tool doesn't reference real elections, candidates, parties, or measures, and official ballots must always come from your election authority.

A class election is a teaching tool, so the ballot should look like the real thing while staying fictional — an invented school, invented student nominees, one section per class office, write-in lines throughout. Describe your slate and the sheet builds it; run the vote, tally in front of the class, and the civics lesson teaches itself.

Ranked choice shines when more than two nominees run for one office — voters number their choices instead of picking one, and you avoid runoff rounds. For a straightforward slate, the classic one-bubble layout tallies faster. Say 'ranked choice' when you describe the ballot and EZdoc builds that layout.

One is the standard — enough for the floor nomination every club eventually produces. Very large organizations sometimes ask for two; say so and the sheet rules them. An awards pool with a fixed slate needs none.

Yes — describe both ('three offices, then two motions as yes/no') and the ballot carries officer sections with bubbles and write-ins followed by labeled motion blocks, all on one sheet, numbered or lettered so the tally sheet matches.
