I want to share some tools that can help you determine 1) if your delegate is not performing as well as expected, and 2) how to find a new delegate.

In the video, I mention three sources:

*   The [Governance Analytics Dashboard by Curia](https://optimism.curiahub.xyz/)
    
*   [Token House Participation and Incentives Report by SEED Latam](https://gov.optimism.io/t/token-house-participation-and-incentives-season-5-cycle-16-19/7852)
    
*   [GovScore](https://govscore.xyz/delegates), a platform for discovering quality underrepresented Optimism delegates
    

Last month, the Foundation shared a “[Delegate Resignation Process](https://gov.optimism.io/t/delegate-resignation-process/8127)” that outlines good practices when a delegate decides to step down. If your delegate shares a long-term resignation, you can use these tools to find a new delegate.

**Why Redelegation is Crucial**

*   Redelegation ensures that decision-making and governance processes continue smoothly
    
*   For decisions to be valid, a quorum must be met
    
*   Redelegation keeps tokens active within the governance framework
    
*   A well-defined redelegation process makes the system resilient to changes and turnovers
    

I hope you find this video helpful. If you did, please consider minting this entry as an NFT.
