Description

The election instructions should be admin-editable, per-election.

  • markdown support is required
  • possibly cache the HTML rendering? Probably doesn't matter at this scale.
  • admin editable
  • feedback email should be a function of the election

Partly driven by the idea of an election that isn't a Hugos (thanks, Jesi...)

Research direction

Start by locating the election model, admin editing interface, instruction template, and feedback-email code. Trace how election-specific data is stored and rendered, then identify the existing tests covering these paths. Done means instructions and the feedback email are configurable per election, with Markdown rendering and non-Hugo elections supported.
