Voting for People's Choice
The People’s Choice voting is an exciting opportunity for the public to have their say in the Rookie Awards. Once the Finalists have been announced, voting opens to determine which entries will win this coveted badge.
How to Vote for People’s Choice
Voting is simple and based on social engagement with shared posts. Here’s how it works:
- Visit a Finalist Entry: Navigate to the Finalists entry page.
- Share or React: You’ll see buttons to Cast your People’s Choice Vote or Share on Facebook. Clicking either of these will allow you to post the entry to your Facebook profile, contributing to the vote tally.
Points System
Votes are calculated based on engagement with shared posts:
- 1 Point for Every Share: Each time the entry is shared directly.
- 1 Point for Every Reshare: If someone reshares your post.
- 1 Point for Every Reaction: Likes, loves, and other reactions on shared posts contribute to the score.
✋
You can bypass the share buttons on the Finalist pages and share directly from Facebook if you prefer. As long as the shared post is public, it will contribute to the score.
Important Notes
- Only shared posts are considered. Stories, reels, or other Facebook content types do not count towards the score.
- Encourage your friends and followers to react, share, and reshare your posts to maximise your impact.
