# Snapshot Voting

How to signal support of proposals

## **What are Snapshot votes?**

Snapshot voting is a way to vote off-chain without spending any ETH to signal support for a given proposal or path forward for a DAO vote.

Snapshot votes can calculate voting power at a certain point in time (block) and customized token balances, including delegations or tokens held in staked LP tokens, for example.

## **How to Vote**

 

1.Head to <https://snapshot.carbon-equal.info/#/>

2.Click on “Connect wallet” button in top right corner.

3.Connect with wallet provider where you hold CBD and/or carbon-equal-CBD staked LP tokens

4.Select the active proposal you wish to vote on

5.After reading the proposal, select your preferred choice and "vote"

6.Your wallet will prompt you to sign a message, this does not cost any ETH and will submit your vote.

## **How Voting weight is calculated**

Voting weight is equal to the sum of your delegated, held, and staked CBD. For held CBD, if it is delegated, then it is not double-counted.

For staked carbon-equal-CBD LP, only the CBD portion is counted and the unclaimed CBD does not count.&#x20;

## **How to make a proposal**

Anyone can make a proposal if their voting weight is more than 1000 CBD.

Simply follow the snapshot guidelines to do so: <https://docs.snapshot.org/proposals/create>
