-# NIP-88
-
-## 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

-
-- **response** : The tag contains "response" as it's first positional argument followed by the option Id selected.
-

-
-### 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:30068` 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:30068` 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.
