How voting works
Simple for you. Hard to cheat.
The public vote is one part of the final score in these three awards. The Judging Panel’s score always carries the larger weight, so a big following alone can’t buy a win.
- Choose. Pick one nominee in an award. You can read about each before you decide.
- Confirm. Enter your mobile number. We send a six-digit code by SMS. The code is free to receive.
- Done. Your vote is counted once. For the next 30 minutes you can vote in the other two awards without a new code.
Votes from accounts found buying followers, views or votes are void, and the nominee may be disqualified. Running totals are never shown; results are checked by independent accountants and kept sealed until the Gala. Voting rules.
