After starting with >13,000 possibilities, the 1st annual Best Of Today's Toons is over & all the votes have been tallied. Neither hanging nor pregnant chads were encountered & Diebold equipment was not used. First, a few stats. 6 of the 62 finalists received 1st-place votes. There were 9 valid entries received & thanks to all of you who took the time to vote!! Votes were cast, in order of preference, for between 1 & 10 of the finalists. Cartoonists Michael Ramirez(11), Mike Lester[8], Eric Allie(3), Zack Rawsthorne(3), Glenn McCoy(2), Bruce Tinsley(2), William Warren(2) & John Bergstrom(2) all had the multiple items in the finals. The method of scoring was as follows: A 1st-place vote received 10 pts., a 2nd-place vote earned 9 pts., ..., down to a 10th-place vote which got 1 pt. And now, the results:


#T45 (0 pts./0 1st-place votes):

We'll be there before you know it.  Then you'll have to start agonizing over getting larger servers.!

Great!  I didn't get to participate in the last round because I was on a cruise.  But it looks like they did fine without me!

Here's a note from 1st & 10th place winner Mike Lester:

This hit my spam filter so forgive the late response:  "Thanks".
