What Are Multi-Question Polls for Housing Societies?

Updated 2026-06-07

What are multi-question polls?

A multi-question poll lets your society ask several distinct questions in one ballot — for example, approve the maintenance budget (Yes/No), elect a sub-committee (ranked-choice), and ratify minutes (resolution) — without running three separate polls. Each question keeps its own type, options, quorum, and pass/fail result. Residents answer all questions in one session; Plinth records one vote per flat for the poll as a whole.

When committees use them

  • AGM packs — budget + by-law + vendor approval in one sitting
  • Reduced voter fatigue — one notification instead of many
  • Linked decisions — all outcomes timestamped together for the minutes record

How Plinth differs from separate polls

Separate polls mean separate turnout counts. Multi-question polls share one open/close window and one participation record per flat, while still computing independent results per question.
