Run a real secret ballot — Firefighter of the Year, officer elections, or an instant vote from the meeting floor — with a projector view, write-in nominations, and outcome rules built right in.
Paper ballots mean counting by hand, lost slips, and arguments over whether the threshold was met. WATCHDESK Voting runs the whole thing digitally and anonymously: members cast a secret ballot from their phone, the tally updates live on the projector, and the outcome rule — majority, 50%+1, or two-thirds — is applied automatically.
A flexible ballot for everything from a year-long award to a snap vote at the meeting.
Run a long-lived poll like Firefighter of the Year, or open an instant floor vote the chair controls live.
Votes are anonymous — one vote per member is enforced, but no screen ever links a member to a choice.
Put a clean present view on the big screen — show a live tally or just “X of N voted,” your call.
Open nomination polls where members write in candidates, with no predefined options required.
Member-ballot polls let voters pick an active member by name — perfect for awards and elections.
Choose majority, 50%+1, or two-thirds, and WATCHDESK declares the winner — or “no winner” — for you.
The tally updates in real time as the room votes from their phones.
Build the poll, pick the ballot type and outcome rule.
Members cast a secret ballot from any device.
Results update live — on the projector or kept private.
The threshold is applied and the outcome declared.
Voting fits naturally alongside the rest of station business.
