When an election is officially announced, candidates may campaign for player votes using any means at their disposal during the period between the election announcement and the conclusion of voting, provided that they comply with the [https://community.eveonline.com/support/policies/eve-eula-en/ EULA] and [https://community.eveonline.com/support/policies/terms-of-service-en/ TOS].

~~A player may cast one vote for each personal account with~~ [[~~Clone states~~|~~Omega~~]] ~~status that has been active~~ for ~~at least thirty consecutive days in~~ the ~~past. This includes reactivated accounts. All votes are strictly anonymous~~.

The voting system is [[wikipedia:Single transferable vote|single transferable vote (STV)]]. CCP doesn't specify the exact variant. In past elections they used the droop quota and the method for the surplus vote transfers could be gathered from CCP's published data.

~~After the polls have closed, an automated system will count the votes and provide a list of the fourteen~~ candidates with the ~~greatest total number of votes received~~. ~~The ten highest tallies of this group will be elected as representatives~~. ~~Candidate tally placement does not grant any special privileges, as all representatives have equal power on the CSM~~.

A player may cast one ballot in which he ranks up to as many candidates as there are seats for each personal account with [[Clone states|Omega]] status that has been active for at least thirty consecutive days in the past. This includes reactivated accounts. All votes are strictly anonymous.
