Learn how to access and interpret non-electoral ballot metrics and reports on the ONR platform's Power Admin. This guide will help you navigate participation data, download insightful reports, and understand key voting metrics.
VIDEO TUTORIAL BELOW
In this guide, we'll explore how to utilize the Participation module in Power Admin to view important metrics and participation data related to your published non-electoral ballots. Additionally, we'll delve into the process of downloading essential reports, such as the Vote Breakdown Report and Votes by Unit Report, and provide insights into the information contained within each report.
NOTE: Before proceeding, make sure you are logged into your Power Admin account at https://poweradmin.onrapp.us/. Please note that only account administrators have access to view this information.
Which Units Have Cast an Online Vote?
Step 1: Access the PARTICIPATION & APPROVALS MODULE in your Power Admin account by selecting the "hand inserting a paper ballot" icon from the left-side menu options and choosing "VOTING."
Step 2: Locate the specific ballot for which you wish to gather information. Find an overview of metrics regarding the ballot's status. Click the three-dot icon in the top right corner of the ballot.
Step 3: Choose "VIEW BALLOT."
Step 4: On the ensuing screen, you will encounter general information about the ballot along with relevant voting metrics (screenshot below) ⬇️.
- Total units: The total count of units registered to your association (including test units for management and ONR support staff).
- Units Voted: The total number of units that have submitted their electronic vote.
- Votes Cast: The cumulative number of votes from all participating units. (more on this below)
For example, if a ballot offers four options and a unit owner is allowed to select up to two options, and they vote for two options, the "Votes Cast" count becomes 2. - Participation: The percentage of eligible owners who have participated in the vote.
Step 5: Moving on, let's explore the Tally & Results tab:
To gain insight into the tally's breakdown, access this screen.

Step 7: Now, let's explore the Vote By Unit tab:
This tab presents a comprehensive list of all units within the system and whether they've cast votes for the specific ballot you're viewing. ⬇️
- The "Voted" column indicates if a unit has voted electronically (not the specific choices made).
- The "Opted-In" column indicates if a unit has opted in to vote for this ballot.
EXPORT REPORT Button: Clicking this button lets you choose your preferred file format for downloading. Keep an eye on your email inbox for a message from no-reply@onrapp.com (remember to check your spam/junk folder).
