vote often?

Cavalier of the Year voting ends in a couple days, and I've been tracking the results as they go.  And I have to admit I'm not especially happy with what I see.  The way things have played out in the voting pattern suggests shenanigans; specifically, the possibility of cheating and voting multiple times.

The absolute last thing I want to do is throw out a result just because I "don't like" what I see.  The second to last thing I want to do is be played for a bloody fool and let some asshole decide my award - yes it's just a little thing but I take it seriously - by spending ten minutes applying votes to the same candidate.

I'm gonna ask that people do me a favor: in the comments section of this post, post who you voted for, and if you found the contest via a link, post the page it came from.  Use a name - I don't care if you use a pseudonym or Internet handle or whatever, but don't post as "Anonymous."  The results of that will determine whether or not I have to start over.  Sorry to have to do this but I think it's necessary.

  10. I voted for Mike Scott. Many worthy, but the hoops team would not have had near the success without him.

  15. I voted for Stanwick. I am wondering if maybe someone associated with the women's soccer program sent out an email to the soccer fan club and got a hundred people to vote for Morgan?

  16. She's obviously a deserving candidate, but about a week ago she went from a handful of votes to 70-80 almost overnight. Definitely seemed a little fishy
