# Vote On Emissions Distribution

## Introduction

By voting with your [veFCTR](https://docs.factor.fi/governance/fctr-token) on [Factor Scale](https://docs.factor.fi/governance/factor-scale), you will be able to influence the distribution of Factor emission rewards to your preferred strategy vaults. Factor has allocated up to 100,000 [FCTR](https://docs.factor.fi/fctr-token#fctr) per epoch to be allocated to curated strategies based on [veFCTR](https://docs.factor.fi/fctr-token#vefctr) voting on [Factor Scale](https://docs.factor.fi/governance/factor-scale). By allocating your vote (i.e. 1 [veFCTR](https://docs.factor.fi/fctr-token#vefctr):1 vote) to a strategy, you are directing a proportion of the emission rewards to the vault based on your protocol contributions.

**Vote Carryover**

Note that while your votes will be carried over automatically to the next voting epoch, any newly acquired [veFCTR](https://docs.factor.fi/fctr-token#vefctr) after your initial vote confirmation will not be counted.

That is, any additional [FCTR](https://docs.factor.fi/fctr-token#fctr) staked will require another round of voting confirmation to be counted towards the next epoch.

**Emissions Multiplier**

Factor Scale implements an emissions multiplier for every veFCTR used to vote on the emissions rewards. More details on the voting process can be found [here](https://docs.factor.fi/governance/factor-scale/..#voting-process).

## Vote For Your Favourite Strategies

### Step 1: Access Factor Scale

Navigate to the [Factor Scale page](https://pro.factor.fi/governance/scale) to start influencing emission rewards. If you're already on the Factor [dapp](https://pro.factor.fi/strategies), you can access Factor Scale via the "Governance" option in the navigation bar.

### Step 2: Navigating Factor Scale

Factor Scale enables you to search for your favourite [curated vaults](https://docs.factor.fi/governance/factor-scale#overview) and allocate a percentage of your total voting power towards. You will also be able to see your total voting power, vote allocations,  as well as any unallocated votes.

### Step 3: Add your votes

Once, you're on the Scale page, you can start to allocate your votes by specifying a vote percentage for each of the shortlisted vaults. Note that the sum of all the percentages across unallocated and allocated votes can not exceed 100%.

### Step 4: Confirm your vote allocation&#x20;

Once you're happy with how your votes will be distributed, click on the "Vote" button to confirm your choice. This will require a signature as your votes are recorded on-chain. Upon confirmation, you will be able to view your updated votes distribution.
