Good point.  Me too.

We're sending out another e-mail blast soon - we'll see if he gets any bump this time.  Last time, it seemed like Williams % skyrocketed right after we sent the e-mail.  WTF - did MU fans start voting for the wrong guy?  They were almost even when we sent the e-mail.

I think people may have been confused and voting for more than one person, you have the ability to only vote for just one.

Wsa at the game on Friday and they made the announcement during a time out.  you can text message a vote and put the information up but then pulled it off before anyone could even get there fphones out for random shots of the crowd?  15 more seconds and he could have probably picked up a few thousand votes

Not true as it's stated: "you may select up to 3"

Yes, but you should select only one for maximum impact.

Well, the gap has closed a little I think.  31 to 20 now.  Just voted a few minutes ago, and will vote again after midmight.

Go Jerel!

Yes, Rocky, I know , but I just wanted to point it out.

Shouldn't you vote for the bottom feeders as well to take percent points away from Williams?

I mean it would take percentage points away from Jerel too but wouldn't it take more away from Williams?

I'm too lazy to figure it out.

The percentage points don't matter.  There's a raw # of votes behind them (in theory), and that gap will stay the same whether you vote for someone else or not, even if it makes the percentages look closer at some point.

I've already voted at least 8 times today.   It's got to change soon.

and I think only 1 of those votes will count since you can only vote once per day.

Actually, I've voted from 3 different computers and texted as well.  When you try to vote twice from the same computer, the site won't let you because you've already voted right?  After I use the program CCleaner, I am able to vote again.  So I did.
