Do patterns stay in the voting page forever?

When a pattern is getting voted, will it stay on there UNTIL it gets enough votes or does it disappear after a few weeks because I really don't want to spend forever hoping patterns get accepted.

Patterns only stay on the voting page for 2-3 days, and are approved based on their relative number of votes. So if all the other patterns submitted around the same time have 15+ and yours only has 5 (for example), it won't be approved and will be removed from the voting page. There are some exceptions to that, like if a pattern is amazing but not of a popular theme, but that's normally how it works. If we left the patterns on there forever every pattern would eventually be approved (might just take years, lol)
