###Try making a clear delineation between the persistent voter data, and the election pane, with the steps clearly outlined.
You can use a pair of buttons, with the number of step or 'pages' so:
- They know how many total steps they have to complete
- They can easily navigate back to make an adjustment
- You can see the time label ('45 days') next to the content pane title, as they are related
I put the steps into the header, but you could try a version where it's pinned to the bottom, although if there's scrolling, the content would go 'under' the bar. I'm not sure what your viewport situation is.
