# Voting Machines Home A *VotingMachine* is a pluggable component, provided by DAOstack Arc which can be used by a DAO's schemes to manage a voting process on a certain proposal. The *VotingMachine* maintains the voting process and the proposals to vote on, collects votes, and determines the winning vote according to the DAO's pre-defined configuration. In some cases, such as [GenesisProtocol](../../generated_docs/VotingMachines/GenesisProtocol.md), it also collects stakes, promotes proposals, and maintains a reputation flow for participants according to the DAO's pre-defined configuration. Each *VotingMachine* use its own decision method and has its own voting choices range. ## Basic decisions methods used by voting machines ### Absolute A decision is made if more than a certain percentage (`P`) from the total DAO's reputation voted on a certain voting choice. Normally `P` is 50% though it can be set to any value. The "winning" choice is the one that first crosses that bar. ### Relative A decision is made on a timeout (`T`) according to the higher relative vote among all votes. The "winning" choice is the one with the higher relative votes (reputation). ### Quorum A decision is made if at least a certain percentage (`P`) from the total DAO's reputation votes on a certain proposal. The "winning" choice is the one with the maximum votes (reputation). ## List of supported voting machines Below is a list of supported `VotingMachines` and their decision methods: | *VotingMachine* | absolute | relative | quorum | --- | --- | --- | --- | | [AbsoluteVote](#absolutevote) | yes | no | no | | [QuorumVote](#quorumvote) | no | no | yes | | [GenesisProtocol](#genesisprotocol) | yes | yes | no | ### [AbsoluteVote](../../generated_docs/VotingMachines/AbsoluteVote.md) Uses an absolute decision method. Allow voting choices range 0-10. Vote 0 for abstain. ### [QuorumVote](../../generated_docs/VotingMachines/QuorumVote.md) Uses a quorum decision method. Allow voting choices range 0-10. Vote 0 for abstain. ### [GenesisProtocol](../../generated_docs/VotingMachines/GenesisProtocol.md) Use absolute and relative decision method. Currently it allows only `YES`/`NO` voting choices (2 choices). Abstaining is not allowed. This voting machine is also a `UniversalScheme`.
