How does the voting work?

For all awards except for People's choice, there is a jury of voters made up of gaming critics, and then they also take in audience votes for them. It's weighted 90% critic, 10% audience though, so the audience gets barely any say on these awards with only 10% voting power. Basically whatever the critics like wins. And a ton of gaming critics lean in a certain direction politically....

The audience wanted Tsushima to win, which was why it won people's choice, but the critics adore TLOU 2. 

A 90-10 split... Jesus...

Should be more balanced than that. I think the critics should have the bigger slice but 90-10 makes the voting system virtually pointless.
