The Complete Compliance Lifecycle.
One Partner. One Audit Trail.
From the first nomination notice to certified results, Votem manages every step — so your election is defensible from day one. Backed by a $50,000 compliance guarantee.
Two Processes. One Audit Trail.
Nomination and election are not separate events — they are a single compliance lifecycle. Running them with different vendors creates documentation gaps that become liabilities when a challenge arrives.
Seamless Chain of Custody
Nomination eligibility records, advance notices, and candidate documentation flow directly into the election audit file. No manual handoffs between vendors.
Single DOL-Ready Audit File
One complete file covers nomination through results. When a DOL investigator or NCUA examiner requests documentation, you have one place to look.
Bundle Pricing Savings
Bundled nomination and election services are priced at a meaningful discount versus purchasing each separately. One engagement, one contract, one point of contact.
From Nomination to Certified Results
A typical full-cycle engagement runs 6–8 weeks. Every step is managed by Votem's credentialed election administrators.

Everything in One Engagement
No separate contracts, no vendor coordination, no documentation gaps. One engagement covers the complete lifecycle.
$50,000 Backed by Votem
If a nomination or election administered by Votem is successfully challenged due to a compliance failure on our part, we cover the cost of the re-run — up to $50,000.
No self-service platform offers anything comparable. The guarantee is possible because we take operational responsibility — not just provide software.
Book a Consultation →Built for Every Regulated Election
The bundle is configured to your specific regulatory context — not a generic template.
LMRDA Title IV
Labor unions must conduct officer elections under DOL supervision. Nomination notices must be sent at least 15 days before the nomination meeting. Votem handles the full Title IV nomination-to-election lifecycle.
NCUA Regulations
Federal credit unions must hold annual board elections with proper advance notice, typically 30 days. Votem's nomination portal ensures eligibility is verified before any candidate appears on the ballot.
ERISA Section 411
Pension fund trustee elections must follow plan documents and ERISA requirements. Votem coordinates nomination and election procedures to meet the specific requirements of your plan document.
Bylaws-Based Elections
Cooperatives and associations conduct elections under their own bylaws. Votem configures the nomination and election process to match your specific bylaw requirements, including quorum, notice, and eligibility rules.
What Compliance Officers Say
Organizations that trust Votem to manage their nomination and election process end-to-end.
"The DOL came knocking six weeks after our officer election. Votem handed us a complete audit file the same day. The investigator closed the inquiry in two weeks. Without that documentation, we'd have been in serious trouble."
"We switched from a self-service platform after our 2021 election was challenged. The difference with Votem is night and day — they handle everything, the audit trail is automatic, and our NCUA examiner was satisfied on the first review."
"Votem ran our trustee election and our nomination process end-to-end. The nomination portal alone saved us three weeks of administrative work. Members could self-nominate, we could verify eligibility, and the whole record was preserved automatically."
