Duplicate / Repeat an Election
As an Administrator, you now have the option of navigating to your Past elections tab, and selecting one of the previous elections, hovering over the Cog and selecting the Duplicate this Election icon, as seen in the screenshot. At which point you will be given options for setting new Dates for your Election, and Nominations, along with giving it a new name.
This will create a new Draft copy of the Election, mirroring all of the Categories, Positions, Standings, User Groups, and Standings you used previously, it has simply removed all of the Candidates ready for you to start fresh, this is particularly helpful if you run elections annually with hundreds of positions, as it negates the requirements to set them all up from scratch.
