2023 Branch Elections — Information about the electronic voting process

October 4, 2023

Starting October 9, CIU members in good standing — located in Branches where elections are taking place for one or more positions, as part of this year’s Branch Elections — will have the opportunity to vote electronically. Please see below for more information regarding the voting process.

Please note: If elections are not taking place for a specific position, this means the position has been filled by acclamation, or that no nomination was received. 

For more information about Branch Elections in general, see the following page.

Some useful information about the electronic voting process

  • We’ve partnered with Intelivote to oversee the voting process.
  • Over the next few days, members in good standing belonging to a Branch where elections are taking place will receive an email from Intelivote with instructions on how to vote. If a member’s email address is not on file, then the member can expect to receive a letter by mail in the coming weeks.
    • Members from a Branch where elections are taking place who have not received an email or a letter from Intelivote by October 16, and who believe they should be able to vote, should write to elections@ciu-sdi.ca.
    • Members from a Branch where elections are not taking place, but who receive an invitation to vote, should disregard the invitation and write to elections@ciu-sdi.ca to report the issue.
  • Members will be provided with a PIN, which they’ll need to vote either online or by phone. Details (PIN, web address and phone number) will be included in the email/letter from Intelivote.
  • Voting will open at 9 a.m. ET on October 9, and close at 8 p.m. ET (5 p.m. PT) on October 29, 2023​.
  • Members will only be able to vote in elections taking place within their Branch.
