Every Action, Timestamped and Logged
Your election's audit trail is a chronological record of what happened from launch to close: when voting started, every ballot submitted, reminders and resends, observer access, and how the election closed. Organizers can't edit or delete an entry.
This isn't a summary or a snapshot. It's a live log, and the whole of it downloads as a CSV at any time.
Anonymous Ballots, Verifiable Participation
This is the balance organizations need. The audit trail records every ballot submitted, and the Voters tab shows who has voted, proving participation. Neither ever shows what anyone voted for: the ballot content is permanently separated from voter identity at a structural level.
You can show that a member voted. You can never see which candidates they chose. Both are documented. Neither compromises the other.
Anonymous + Verifiable
Prove participation. Protect privacy.

When your board, legal counsel, or regulatory body asks for election documentation, you need it fast and you need it complete. ElectionChamp lets you download the audit trail, the results, each question's per-ballot file and the voter list, each as a CSV.

Who Needs Election Audit Trails?
If your organization has governance rules around elections, this is the record that shows how the vote ran.
HOAs & Condo Boards
State laws require documented election procedures for board elections, bylaw amendments, and special assessments. The dashboard shows when notices went out, and the audit trail records every ballot and how the election closed.
State HOA act compliance · California guideUnions & Labor Groups
The LMRDA and Department of Labor require unions to maintain election records for at least one year and let each candidate have an observer. ElectionChamp keeps election records for 5 years, gives each observer a read-only link that never shows a voter key, and our audit trail provides the documentation needed to satisfy regulatory audits.
LMRDA / DOL requirements · LMRDA guideNonprofits & Associations
Bylaws typically require documented notice to members and a record of election proceedings. The dashboard shows when notices went out, and the audit trail records how the election ran.

When someone challenges your election, this is the evidence you'll be glad you have.
Audit & Compliance Questions
Everything that happens once the election launches, in time order: when voting started, every ballot submitted (never by whom), reminders sent, emails and texts resent, extra keys added, keys deactivated (elections launched before October 11, 2026), observer links added, revoked and viewed, views of the results and voter list, and how the election closed. Each entry has a precise timestamp.
No. Organizers can't edit or delete an entry; the app has no way to change one. The trail is kept with the election for 5 years and deleted with it after a 30-day notice.
No. The audit trail records that a ballot was submitted, never by whom or how. Voter identity is structurally separated from ballot data, so it's impossible for anyone, including ElectionChamp staff, to trace a vote back to a specific voter.
On your election's Audit trail tab, click Download CSV. The file has every entry, oldest first, with times in your election's time zone and in UTC, and voter keys masked. Most organizations attach it to their board meeting minutes or keep it on file.
Yes. The complete audit trail is included on every plan, including the free tier for up to 20 voters. We believe every election, regardless of size, deserves proper documentation and compliance records.
Election records, including the audit trail, are kept for 5 years after an election closes (or after its last activity, if that is later), well beyond the LMRDA's one-year minimum for union elections. Then the election is deleted. We email you at least 30 days before, so download the results and keep copies of any records your organization must hold longer.
