## Definitions

### `us.off-the-clock.polls.vote#entry`

**Type**: `object`

| Property | Type | Required | Description |
|----------|------|----------|-------------|
| `input` | `string` | No | The voter's typed answer, for an option that allows input. |
| `key` | `string` | Yes |  |

### `us.off-the-clock.polls.vote`

**Type**: `record`

A member's answer to a us.off-the-clock.polls.poll in the same space. The member's newest vote counts; one with no entries is an abstention. Votes are records in the space, so every member who reads it can see who voted and how. A client may add createdAt, the time it cast the vote; the AppView trusts it up to five minutes before it indexes the vote and never after.

**Key**: `tid`

| Property | Type | Required | Description |
|----------|------|----------|-------------|
| `poll` | `ref` → `com.atproto.repo.strongRef` | Yes | The poll, with the CID of the version the voter saw. |
| `votes` | `array` | Yes | The chosen options by key, at most one entry per key; empty to abstain. |
