# Community Voting ## How It Works Any XRPL account holder can participate in the program by voting for nominated contributors. ### Vote Activation XRPL wallet holders must first connect their wallet to the platform using supported wallets. To cast votes, a wallet holder must prove ownership by signing a minimal one-drop transaction. This registration process enables the wallet holder to vote on all nominations for current and future cohorts. Each wallet can cast only one vote per nomination. ### Types of Votes Three types of votes can be cast: * **Upvote (Yay):** +1, indicating support for the nomination * **Downvote (Nay):** -1, indicating opposition to the nomination * **Remove vote (Null):** Removes a previously cast vote Users can change their vote at any time by clicking the voting buttons. The total community votes are tallied and displayed for each nomination, helping to inform the judges' evaluations. ## Impact of Voting Community votes are used to evaluate nominated projects. For more details, see the [Judging section](/program-information/key-processes/judging.md). *** For questions about voting, contact . --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
