**What would you like done?**
First, I would like to pay someone to fix the [Discourse Elections](https://meta.discourse.org/t/elections-plugin/68521) plugin.
Then, I would also like some new features, such as completion of some of the author’s “to do” items. We can handle this separate from the work to fix the plugin, since I don’t really know what changes we’ll want until after it is working and we have a chance to test it.
**When do you need it done?**
I am open to a discussion about this with anyone willing to pick up the plugin. I do not know what a feasible timeline might be since I don’t quite understand just how broken the plugin is. Let’s chat!
**What is your budget, in $ USD that you can offer for this task?**
I am guessing it will take hundreds to thousands of dollars to tackle this. Please review the plugin and let me know your thoughts so we can work out a price.
Thanks for your time!

Hi,
I can help fix the Discourse Elections plugin and then discuss additional features once it’s working.
Happy to review the current issues and suggest a realistic timeline.
Let’s connect and discuss.
Thanks,
Ian

@angus - I’m not sure where you are at with this sort of stuff at the mo, but thought you might be interested.

Given that it’s been broken for 3 years, and presumably no one is still using it, it might make more sense to start from scratch.
What kind of elections do you have? does the old plugin describe exactly what you want to do?

Hey guys, I don’t have the time to do this myself but I’m happy to review someone’s work and merge it into the plugin.
