POLL-002 / GOVERNANCE RECORD

What should be the standard voting duration for future daoCAT governance polls?

This vote will establish the standard duration that future daoCAT governance polls remain open. The purpose is to balance two important principles: Participation: Giving every eligible Legend enough time to review proposals and cast their vote. Efficiency: Allowing governance decisions to move forward in a reasonable timeframe. This poll uses the governance standard established by Poll #001: - Quorum must be reached for a valid decision. - A winning option must receive more than 50% of deciding votes. - If no option reaches majority, the top two options will proceed to a runoff vote. The selected duration will become the default timeframe for standard governance polls. Special circumstances requiring different timelines may be addressed through future governance rules. Final turnout: 16 of 17 eligible Legends. Quorum required 9. This record documents the community result; any outside implementation requires separate authorization.
