RE: How Many Steemians Are NOT Voting for a Witness? I Found the Answer!
I have voted for witnesses and have 18 witness votes remaining, but I do not just want to randomly vote for people just to use up my votes. I saw that you can have someone more knowledgeable vote for you, but it seems it would erase all your previous votes. Is there a way to assign my last 18 votes by proxy without erasing the votes I have already submitted?
I have a few suggestions for witnesses......
@timcliff
@yunkzilla
@drakos
@clayop
@gtg
well, more if you're interested...
Thank you so much. I've been following you since I joined, and have high confidence in your recommendations.
there are more...
Great! I have 10 more votes, would you be able to give 10 more recommendations?

Thank You for recommending me 🤗 @stellabelle
anytime.
I finally voted and have now used all my witness votes. Thanks for taking the time to help me.
I am very glad to hear that....you might want to vote for @teamsteem because well, he's a bright light, and helps people, regular people.
Done and done! I'm excited to follow these witnesses and see what they're up to.
You can also set someone up as your proxy, if you like.
Ah, but what is Yunk, anyway? Hehehe. As soon as you define it, the magic is gone. :)
Good list.
I think it would be really helpful if a post like this included how exactly to go about voting for a witness.
Hello Scott. I did include it, but I made the text small. Maybe I should have made it big instead! Haha.
Voting for a Witness
I agree, I didn't even know what a witness was. Still not sure that I do. Is it like a bitcoin node?
It's like the Steem equivalent of a Bitcoin miner.
Nice Comment!
It is like a bitcoin pool that gets to "mine" more blocks, process transactions and get paid for it with newly created tokens.
Unfortunately, no. Using a proxy is an all or nothing approach. If you're voting, cool! No need for a proxy voter, in that case.
Thank you for the reply; much appreciated!
So if i daily vote i should not use proxy? That, when i would sorted out and know to do it :-)
There's a difference between voting on posts and voting for witnesses. One is separate from the other. You can either vote for witnesses directly or you can select a proxy which your account will mirror and vote as they vote.
So, i voted for a witness (@teamsteem) and now you are the second one in https://steemit.com/~witnesses
Is that supposed to be enough?
I also upvote for @steemitboard when i see it in peoples comments (also followed you all).
Upvoting a comment or post is different than giving a witness vote. See the article I link to in the original post for more information. You can vote for up to 30 witnesses, if you like. It's up to you.
thanks a lot
