Vote now!

[Felonious Python]

This may be the most important decision you make in 2012.

[EvanOberg]

Do we give Feds #16 or does the voting start over?

[LightningStrikes]

I would have given him (or Modin) #16 but then again Boucher for example went from previously 3 or 4 votes to just 1 over the past couple polls so perhaps we do need another round to decide #16...

Opinions?

New poll. Close races don't neccessarily birth the de facto next guy.

but as for right now, the race is tied, so we may need a barn fight to resolve #15.

[sonny side up]

lol at the 9-9 tie... give 15 to them both, hahaha

Need to implement Chicago style election protocol for this. Vote early, vote often.

[Felonious Python]

Just make them both mods.

[Felonious Python]

Fedotenko!

[LightningStrikes]

For whatever reason the poll was extended and Feds got another vote. Pretty sure it said "this poll is closed" when I put up the new one...

I extended it another day, since they were still tied. That was around 9:30am, about an hour after the previous deadline had passed. My interpretation of a runoff is to determine a single winner, and since we're in a lockout and not a whole lot else is going on...a little bit of silly controversy during a presidential election cycle couldn't have come at a better time.

I made my 'make them both mods' post at 11am, at which point, they were still tied.

The #17 voting was put up at 11:13am, and I was away from the boards for a few hours after my 11am post. But I can relatively safely assume there was not a change in votes during those 13 minutes. If you want to give #15 to both of them, I'm cool with that.

[LightningStrikes]

Outrageous!

Do we need a poll on what to do next?

A. Keep 'em both tied at #15 and proceed as planned (keep #17 poll open).
B. Give Feds #15, give Modin #16 and keep #17 poll open.
C. Give Feds #15, close #17 poll and do a #16 poll including Modin.

Damn butterfly ballots.
