On website under members area | elections person tried to enter nomination
for position and get seconder but it then wanted them to nominate again.

Nomination did not go through.

System is broken. It needs fixing at least by next year when election is
due again.

There needs to be a simple manual for nominations with screen dumps on
website so procedure is followed OK.

Here is quote re nomination:

"If you wish to nominate yourself, identify the positions you wish to
nominate for and get an understanding of what each position involves.
Think about what you might bring to the role and prepare a short pitch.
Then, accept the nomination you've been given by clicking the 'Accept
nomination' link.
*You must accept your nomination to move to the next stage of the
election process*"

All there was was 'NOMINATE' button requiring person nominated to fill in
what had been entered for nomination again which was not done.

There was no Accept nomination link emailed to nominee or on the Website
next to their name on position's area.

There was no Accept nomination link the day before closing of nominations.

There was no confirmation to nominator re why nomination failed just no
nomination and candidate status: pending.
