Can't vote?

Duh! 
I knew I'd hate myself for asking this one!
Sorry for bothering you!

Thanks a lot!

You have to unset your voting proxy before you can cast your own votes.

Hello,

I have a BitShares Lifetime Membership, I'm trying to get votes for my new Witness Node in Canada wss://relinked.com/ws and as I read the documentation, it showcases how you can vote for your own witness. Problem is, voting is locked for my account... When using BitShares-light, I go in the Votes section and all the places where there should be a vote icon, I see a locked icon.

Can anyone help me out and tell me why that is?

Thanks!
