+# NIP-118
+
+## Polls
+
+`draft` `optional`
+
+This NIP defines the event scheme that describe Polls on nostr.
+
+The NIP makes the following tradeoffs.
+
+1. All votes are public.
+2. All votes are editable (latest response by timestamp considered last vote)
+
+## Events
+
+### Poll Event
+
+The poll event is defined as a `kind:1068` event. 
+
+- **content** key holds the label for the poll.
+
+Major tags in the poll event are:
+
+
+- **option**: The option tags contain an OptionId(any alphanumeric) field, followed by an option label field.
+- **relay**: One or multiple tags that the poll is expecting respondents to respond on.
+- **polltype**: can be "singlechoice", "multiplechoice", or "rankedchoice". Polls that do not have a polltype should be considered a "singlechoice" poll. 
+
+

+  ]
+}
+```
+
+### Responses
+
+The response event is a `kind:1018` event. It contains an e tag with the poll event it is referencing, followed by one or more response tags.
+
+- **response** : The tag contains "response" as it's first positional argument followed by the option Id selected.
+
+Example Response Event
+
+```json
+{
+  "content": "",
+  "created_at": 1720097117,
+  "id": "60a005e32e9596c3f544a841a9bc4e46d3020ca3650d6a739c95c1568e33f6d8",
+  "kind": 1018,
+  "pubkey": "1bc70a0148b3f316da33fe7e89f23e3e71ac4ff998027ec712b905cd24f6a411",
+  "sig": "30071a633c65db8f3a075c7a8de757fbd8ce65e3607f4ba287fe6d7fbf839a380f94ff4e826fbba593f6faaa13683b7ea9114ade140720ecf4927010ebf3e44f",
+  "tags": [
+    ["e", "1fc80cf813f1af33d5a435862b7ef7fb96b47e68a48f1abcadf8081f5a545550"],
+    ["response", "gga6cdnqj"],
+    ["response", "m3agjsdq1"]
+  ]
+}
+```
+
+### Poll Types
+
+Poll Types can be configured in the settings object of the poll, the setting dictates how multiple response tags are handled in the `kind:1018` event.
+
+- **PollType: singlechoice**: The first response tag is to be considered the actual response.
+- **PollType: multiplechoice**: The first response tag pointing to each id is considered the actual response, without considering the order of the response tags.
+- **PollType: rankedchoice**: The first response tag pointing to each id is the considered the actual response, while also taking into account the order of the response tags.
+
+### Counting Results
+
+Results can be queried by fetching `kind:1018` events from the relays specified in the poll.
+The results displayed should only be 1 vote event per pubkey.
+In case of multiple events for a pubkey, the event with the largest timestamp should be considered.
+
+### Curation
+
+The clients may configure fetching results by specific people. This can be achieved by creating `kind:30000` follow sets, and fetching results only from the follow set.
+Clients can also employ other curation algorithms, like Proof Of Work and Web of Trust scores for result curations.
