Use this endpoint to partially update the election configuration before the election opens. Because it follows HTTP PATCH semantics, you only send the fields you want to change — the server merges your updates into the existing record and leaves every other field untouched. You can update the voter count, the ballot question, the candidate list, or any combination of the three in a single request.
PATCH only modifies the fields you provide. Any field you omit in the request body remains unchanged in the database.
Update the configuration before starting the election. Making changes after calling the start-vote endpoint may cause inconsistencies between the stored config and ballots already issued to voters.
