The Voting Process

At the meeting, around the time the motion is made to put the university's offer to vote, an email notification from CUPEU (using the address "vote@simplyvoting.com") with directions on how to cast your vote will be sent to your Concordia email address. Only members confirmed in good standing who RSVP'd, are in attendance and have identified themselves properly will receive this information.

Due to university firewall limits, our ability to send mass email notifications is restricted. You, more than likely, will receive your ballot a few minutes or hours after the meeting. We expect this. If you don't receive your email notification by 9 a.m. the next day (February 19, 2021), email cupeu@concordia.ca (Subject: Online ballot) right away. We will close access to voting at 3 p.m. to accommodate any possible delays.


Once results are tallied, the final outcome will be sent out in a newsletter. If you have questions, feel free to contact us. See you online at the meeting.
