Poll & Vote Event

---

draft optional author:0xtlt

An event with kind 1 that wants to contain a poll can do so by adding poll tags and its content as follows:

{
  ...
  "kind": 1,
  "tags": [
    ...
    ["poll", "Choice 1"],
    ["poll", "Choice 2"],
    ["poll", "Choice 3"]
    ...
  ],
}

Then the client should display voting options if more than 1 choice is present in the poll.

The client can then submit the vote by sending an event with kind 8 and its content which will be the index (start at 0) of the chosen choice.

It should also contain an e tag with the id of the poll event only.

{
  ...
  "kind": 8,
  "tags": [
    ...
    ["e", "<event-id>"]
    ...
  ],
  "content": "1"
}

Warning

Keep in mind that all votes are public and accessible to everyone.
