Final round of voting

by GopherNation on Sep 25, 2008 9:18 AM CDT Comment 9 comments

We have narrowed the voting down to the frontrunners. PJS is a little bummed that Rodent Droppings did not make the top two but it is what it is. Do you like "The Daily Fix" as is or should we change the name to "Golden Nuggets" ? This is an election year and at TDG we let the people decide.

I'm Gopher Nation and I approve this message.

This election comes down to ...

… change versus experience. Will TDG Nation vote for more of the same?

And no matter what, the creator of Golden Nuggets (have to look back to see who that was) will be sent a prize!!! Yay!

Golden Nuggets

“Nugget” is too funny of a word to be included.

and That Fabulous Prize

Will Be a Trip for two to a Men’s Hockey Game of their choice, with Hotel Being Provided, a Pre Game Skate with Lucia and the Boys, and a chance to Meet yours Truly……Kidding.

I smell election tampering

First and foremost, I didn’t have a hand in either name in the final election.

But being that the first poll was 57-48 for Golden Nuggets over the Daily Fix with assorted others getting votes. It seems highly unlikely that everyone who voted for something else would ALL vote for Golden Nuggets since the current tally is now 78-49.

It isn’t that I’m making a big deal of it, but it does seem fishy.

Boudreau

…. To address your speculation rencito, I can only say that there was a last minute voter suppression effort that we believe came from the Boudreau camp. We can’t prove this yet but are investigating various voter intimidation tactics!!
