Edit a candidate
You may edit an existing candidate by clicking the edit icon as shown below.
Delete A Candidate
Deleting a candidate will remove them from the election completely. You will have a warning prompt, after which this is non reversible.
Note: A candidate cannot be deleted while an election is live, or recently closed
Exclude a candidate from your final result
Should one or more of your candidates withdraw from the election process, you may exclude this candidate from the final results.
NOTE
If you exclude a candidate from being counted during a live election, the count will automatically exclude that candidate when your election closes.
If your election has already closed, and you then need to exclude a candidate, go ahead and exclude the candidate, you will then need to initiate a recount from your results page.
