UpVote Election Backend API
A DAO can have an upvote election, which can be in one of 3 states - upcoming, ongoing, previous
All elections (historic) can be found with the edge "election"
When there is an upcoming election, members can sign up for it by signing up for the "Delegate" badge.
All members with delegate badge participate in the start round of the upcoming election.
Winners are given either chief delegate badges (1 - 10) or a head delegate badge (1)
An election has rounds - start round, current round
And these fields
- seed
- start date
- end date
- duration - how long until the next election, e.g. 13 weeks
- status (finished or not)
Election round has groups - 3 - N groups
- start date
- end date
Winners of each group advance to the next
Election group has between 4 and 6 members And between 0 and 6 votes.
Members vote for a winner
Winner is updated dynamically as votes are added.
winner == -1 - no winner
- winner
A vote stores
- voter_id
- voted_id
In the last round, defined by there being 11 or fewer members, the system randomly chooses a head delegate.
Then assigns chief delegate badges to all chief delegate members, and head delegate badge to the head delegate.
These badges expire in the duration of the election, meaning, if the election has a 13 week duration these badges will expire in 13 weeks.
