# Election Details

After you have created an election, on the **Elections** page, click on the **View** button to begin management. Use the navigation panel to navigate from the **Election Overview** to the **Election Details** section.

In the **Election Details** section, you can edit the election’s **Name**, **Start Date** and **Time**, **End Date** and **Time**, as well as the optional **Description** describing the election.

One or more **placeholders** may be available for use in the **Description** to further personalize any given elector's ballot.

To use a **placeholder**, simply start typing two open curly brackets (i.e. **{{**) to open a dynamic auto-complete menu of available placeholders depending on the features activated on your account and relevant to this specific field.

You may also optionally specify a **Usergroup**.
