Abstract	Electronic Society today is one of main challenges of developing and developed countries. It plays a central role in the national development plans and thus many ICT based projects are dedicated to digital society development. In this regard, government organizations must reengineer their processes and structures to meet the e-government and e-society defined standards. All of these together will make processes electronically available to citizens and businesses and minimize physical attendance in organizations to get information and services. This article focuses on specific and challengeable area of digital society called "electronic election". The authors try to combine the ICT enabled prerequisites to define a roadmap to move from traditional election process to pure electronic election. To do so, differences between traditional and electronic election are defined and different scenarios of partial e-election are introduced. The case being considered is the process of annual trade union election within Trade Organization (TTO), the subsidiary of Ministry of Commerce. The paper describes how it can be performed via electronic channels using Election Markup language (EML), a standard suitable and efficient to reengineering the traditional election.
