Description

While looking at updating voting results on updates done to global delegations (#44, #52), the issue of post-voting results updates came up.

We need a lightweight way to freeze voting results so they don't change after the fact.

A possible solution might be added a `closed` flag to the `results` table. A more involved solution would be having the higher concept of a `Voting`, with timed periods and such, but if possible we'd like to keep lean and leave that to the consumer platform to define.

Research direction

Review the context from global delegations in issues #44 and #52, then inspect how voting results are represented in the results table. The issue needs a decided lightweight approach for freezing results and clear acceptance criteria before implementation can be considered done.
