# Delegated Representatives (DReps) {% hint style="danger" %} **ARCHIVED** This page has been archived. It's content might be outdated. {% endhint %} Delegated Representatives (DReps) are a new role introduced in the Age of Voltaire as part of the governance model proposed under CIP-1694. DReps, stake pool operators, and the Constitutional Committee are responsible for voting on governance actions. Any ada holder can register as a DRep. DReps will play a crucial role in the decision-making process within the Cardano ecosystem, contributing to the democratic nature of the governance model. Ada holders may delegate their ada voting power to representatives who they feel are best equipped (for example, through deeper technological expertise) to best represent their interests. *** Check the guides to: {% content-ref url="/spaces/qBJxNzoywC55SZXT5Tv2/pages/jng2cC9ZSQCs0DirfMay" %} [Register as a DRep](https://docs.gov.tools/cardano-govtool/using-govtool/dreps/register-as-a-drep) {% endcontent-ref %} {% content-ref url="/spaces/qBJxNzoywC55SZXT5Tv2/pages/dHifTYvfzCCpFiZbRPQn" %} [Delegate to a DRep](https://docs.gov.tools/cardano-govtool/using-govtool/delegating/delegate-to-a-drep) {% endcontent-ref %} --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
