Found this on their website, so no point in Brogan sharing to her followers about it as they won't be able to vote, so fingers crossed she doesn't win!
Traverse Events Awards
NO PUBLIC VOTING
Over time it seems that too many awards are degraded by online public voting.
The voting can be to gain a nomination to the awards or to decide the overall winner.
The TCAs will not include a public vote in any part of the award process, meaning that they will be awarded to those who deserve to be recognised, not those who can request that enough family and friends to vote for them.
A panel of experts will decide on the shortlisted content creators in each category, with judges from each field deciding on the outright winners from those who are nominated.
