I just got Furniture 3, and when I use a private crafting station and a structure tool, I'm not seeing the option to make a ballot box. Any ideas why?

Ballot Boxes are in the Advanced General, Weapons and Droids crafting tool. You also need to be at a General Crafting Station to make them.

Currently only the ballot function works, the banking system doesn't. They also cannot be picked up or moved after dropping.

what is a ballot box used for in the game?

At what point do they stop being moveable? Yesterday I dropped mine, moved it, picked it up, dropped it again, moved it clear across the room...I haven't tried to move it since I made a ballot though, maybe that's when it becomes unmovable until the voting is stopped?

BTW, apparently a server reboot clears out your ballot and doesn't send you an email of the results. So, probably not much point in using one until they stop doing updates every day.

Seems like everyone has gotten the mfg of ballot boxes down correctly. Here's a question though: How do you make a ballot? I tried. It brings up the edit ballot window but, I can't type anything into it. Does it have to be put in a PA hall to have an editable ballot? Does the bank feature work then also? Tied to this question is how do you control the leadership of the PA? Currently, the person that puts down the PA hall is the leader; but, that should not always be true should it?

They may have actually fixed them not being moveable after placement. I've been too afraid to try it since the the last time I did it.

Ballot boxes work in any structure, if I remember correctly you need to initialize them or something. I'll play with one again tonight and get back with you.
