[Minascan](https://minascan.io/) is taking the lead in developing the powerful Governance functionality for the Mina protocol, and today we would like to present you the first yet quite complete version of the dashboard.

In this release, we will introduce you to the features of governance in Mina, how to vote and how to view the voting and tallying process in the [Minascan](https://minascan.io/) explorer.

**Voting**

The Voting Period starts after the MIP Process. We have placed all the details about this procedures in our reference on the “**Votes**” page, and you can find it as indicated below:

Thus, by sending a transaction with a vote, you will be able to track the results in this table. And the diagram below from our reference will explain to you what each status means:

In addition to the description the following details are available:

*   Proposer name / Id
    
*   Link to the discussion on the [MinaResearch](https://forums.minaprotocol.com/) forum
    
*   **Results** - the current results of vote tallying
    
*   **Percent Voted** - the ratio of the voting power participated in the voting process to the total Mina supply at the time when votes are tallied
    
*   The **timeline** displays all the stages in time that this proposal went through
    
*   The flexible “**Votes**” table shows you how to filter the vote signals for a given proposal by many criteria (for example, you can find which validators voted “no“).
    

  

**Timeline**

The timeline displays the stages of a proposal. These stages include **off-chain** activity within the MIP process and **on-chain** activity within the voting process (marked with special labels).

**Account Header: UI Update**

We are setting the stage for the implementation of wallet operations, and in this release we have made some improvements to the interface for account details.

Now the balance and its equivalent in USD are always displayed separately, and you don’t have to look for it.
