Voting help & FAQ

Everything you need to vote smoothly, unlock 2x Vote Power, and fix common issues in a few seconds.

Quick Start

How to vote successfully

1

Pick your nominee

Tap your favorite nominee card first so the vote popup knows who you are supporting.

2

Complete verification

Finish the quick security check in the popup, then press the vote button to confirm your vote.

3

Watch for confirmation

Wait until you see the success message or cooldown timer. That means your vote was recorded.

Why is the vote button disabled?

Usually this means no nominee is selected yet, or the popup verification step is still incomplete. Select a nominee and finish the security check first.

Why can't I vote again yet?

This poll uses a cooldown between votes to keep voting fair. If you already voted, wait for the timer to finish, refresh if needed, and try again.

How do I unlock 2x Vote Power?

Use one of the share buttons or copy the nominee link, then return to this tab and wait for the 2x status to unlock before voting. Your next vote will count double once it is active.

Can I get 2x Vote Power more than once?

2x Vote Power only boosts the next eligible vote after it unlocks. After you use it, share again later if the poll still allows another vote cycle.

Voting is blocked on my network or device

Turn off any VPN, proxy, ad-block privacy relay, or similar masking tools first. After that, refresh the page and try voting again on a stable connection.

Why didn't my vote or 2x bonus seem to count?

Do not close the popup too quickly. Wait for the success state, cooldown message, or updated badge. If you shared for 2x power, make sure the unlocked state appears before submitting the vote.

Where can I see if my vote was counted?

After a successful vote, you should see a confirmation state inside the popup and usually a cooldown message. You can also open the results screen to check the latest ranking update.

Why do the results look unchanged right away?

Large polls can feel competitive because rankings move quickly. Refresh the results view after your vote is confirmed to see the newest totals and position changes.

Do I need to stay on this page after sharing?

Yes, it is best to return to this poll tab after sharing. The page needs to show the unlocked 2x state before you submit the boosted vote.

What if the security check does not load?

Check your connection, disable aggressive ad blockers or script blockers for this page, then refresh and reopen the vote popup. The verification widget must load before voting can continue.

Can I vote after the poll has ended?

No. Once the poll reaches its closing time, voting is locked and only the final results remain available to view.

Best quick retry if something feels stuck

Refresh the page, reopen the poll, choose your nominee again, and complete the popup step from start to finish. That solves most temporary issues.
