Text-In Voting lets your audience vote for their favorite Competitors, giving everyone a chance to participate, not just your official judges.
It's a great way to offer an Audience Favorite award, especially at events with attendees who aren't part of the judging panel.
For example:
Science fairs: Kids and parents can vote for their favorite projects.
Research capstone expos: Undergraduate students can support their favorite presentations.
Conferences: Attendees can choose their favorite speakers, projects, or presentations.
