Azul, the Chancery is pleased to release to the public a preview-mode version of the ballot for the upcoming General Elections. You can find it at https://database.talossa.com/elections/august-2026-elections/preview.
If you log in to the Database beforehand (should you have credentials), you will receive a voting confirmation email which in itself is a preview of what everyone will receive when casting a vote in the actual election. This is a new feature that was still missing from the new Database.
Other changes with respect to the previous election include:
- Redesigned party options, incl. to offer a better experience on mobile
- A confirmation modal to recap your choices and make sure voters's choices are recorded properly (including warning when parts have been left blank or when there are duplicate ranked votes)
- Various visual tweaks (e.g. better use of colours to visually separate parts of the ballot) and usability improvements (e.g. when selecting a write-in citizen from the dropdown, the "write-in" option will automatically be marked)
The design of the ballot, of the confirmation email and of the receipt page may receive further tweaks before voting begins.
