# Proposals & Voting
|
|
|
|
Likwid supports multiple voting methods to match different decision-making needs.
|
|
|
|
## Proposal Lifecycle
|
|
|
|
### 1. Draft
|
|
The author creates a proposal with:
|
|
- Title and description
|
|
- Voting options
|
|
- Selected voting method
|
|
|
|
### 2. Discussion Phase
|
|
- Members read and discuss the proposal
|
|
- Comments are organized for constructive deliberation
|
|
- The author may refine the proposal based on feedback
|
|
|
|
### 3. Voting Phase
|
|
- Voting opens for a defined period
|
|
- Members cast votes using the specified method
|
|
- Delegated votes are resolved
|
|
|
|
### 4. Closed
|
|
- Results are calculated and displayed
|
|
- The decision is recorded permanently
|
|
|
|
## Voting Methods
|
|
|
|
### Approval Voting
|
|
**Best for:** Simple yes/no decisions or selecting multiple options
|
|
|
|
- Select all options you approve of
|
|
- Options are ranked by total approvals
|
|
- Simple and intuitive
|
|
|
|
### Ranked Choice (Instant Runoff)
|
|
**Best for:** Electing a single winner from many candidates
|
|
|
|
- Rank options from most to least preferred
|
|
- Lowest-ranked options are eliminated in rounds
|
|
- Votes transfer to next preference
|
|
|
|
### Schulze Method
|
|
**Best for:** Complex decisions requiring nuanced preferences
|
|
|
|
- Rank all options
|
|
- Uses pairwise comparisons
|
|
- Condorcet-consistent (beats all others head-to-head)
|
|
|
|
### STAR Voting (Score Then Automatic Runoff)
|
|
**Best for:** Balancing expressiveness with simplicity
|
|
|
|
- Rate each option 0-5 stars
|
|
- Top two scorers enter automatic runoff
|
|
- Prevents strategic voting
|
|
|
|
### Quadratic Voting
|
|
**Best for:** Expressing intensity of preference
|
|
|
|
- Allocate voice credits across options
|
|
- Cost increases quadratically (1 vote = 1 credit, 2 votes = 4 credits)
|
|
- Prevents tyranny of the majority
|
|
|
|
## Casting Your Vote
|
|
|
|
1. Open the proposal during the voting phase
|
|
2. Follow the voting method instructions
|
|
3. Submit your vote
|
|
4. You can change your vote until voting closes
|
|
|
|
## Delegation and Voting
|
|
|
|
If you've delegated your vote on a topic:
|
|
- Your delegate votes on your behalf
|
|
- You can override by voting directly
|
|
- Delegations are transparent
|
|
|
|
## Viewing Results
|
|
|
|
After voting closes:
|
|
- See total vote counts
|
|
- View method-specific details (rounds, pairwise matrices)
|
|
- Results are permanent and auditable
