Hey Angela, just saw you got a punt from Amanda on the Skepchick website in the latest Skepchick Quickies.
I'm off to vote....

Good luck!

Cheers,

Hey guys,

You rock! Owen and I cracked the Semi-finals and we are officially in the finals of the Nerdies. Now the real fun begins, while Owen has caused a mini-riot by securing 100 or so votes in a day, I am trailing by about 50 votes... :-(

Please vote for me!

P.S. I got a shout out on Skepchick because skepchicks stick together!

Not that I would, but what is stopping anyone voting for the same person twice or thrice?

It seems you just need to clobber your cookies for answers.polldaddy.com and you're in for another vote LOL.  Grin

I added a few votes.  Wink

It's easy to fake votes. Clearing cookies is the easiest way, or just vote from different browsers (IE, Firefox, Chrome and Opera all have different cookie systems). Even requiring registration with a valid email account is only inconvenient, email is free these days.

There's no foolproof internet voting system, but they work with what they have.
