I have been trying to figure out how the voting thing works. I have seen some posts that ask not to vote if under 90% and followed links to explain the 'proper' way to spread my 10 votes per day. I still am confused by it. This is in no way meant to be negative to Steemit or anyone on this blockchain. I am having a lot of fun learning how to connect here.
I am also also pushing past some of my' comfort zones' with technology. Ha, I still miss my rotary phone...love that sound, I even asked my son to make an app for my sell phone. I wrote about my 'Old Ways' here:

but I digress...back to the upvote issue. I am sure that I will figure out what it is all about as I go along, but it would be great to find a link like this:
- Explain the upvoting to me like I am a 5 year old.
OR EVEN BETTER - Explain it to me like I am a 60+ year old, because I honestly think there are a lot of 5 year olds who are much more comfortable and adept at all of this than I am, LOL!!
That being said, I will continue to grow and learn in this space and other spaces until the end of my 3D stay here on earth and I humbly ask that you do be patient with me and all NOOBS as we vote and/or figure out all things Steem and beyond.
Love, Cheryl
Well, the more you vote the lower your voting power is (that percent). If your voting power is really low then your votes aren't worth anything either. If you upvote around 10 post per day you will have a good voting power and a valuable vote! This all is to prevent bots from taking over the world ;)
I hope this helped you!
