You can change your vote at any time while the poll is active by clicking a different option.

Viewing Results

There are two ways to view poll results:

1. View Results Button: Click the "View Results" button below any active poll
2. Poll Completion: When a poll ends, the final results are displayed to everyone

Results show:

• Each option with its vote count
• Percentage of total votes for each option
• Visual progress bars for easy comparison

Privacy Note: While you can see which option you voted for, you cannot see how others voted. Only the aggregate results are visible.

Ring Signatures

The bot uses Alice's Ring library for cryptographic privacy. Each vote is:

• Anonymous but verifiable
• Protected against double-voting
• Mathematically proven to be private
• On-chain verifiable

Smart Contract Integration

• All poll data is recorded on Starknet
• Results can be accessed by other smart contracts
• Enables privacy-preserving reward distribution
• Maintains voter anonymity while ensuring vote integrity
