5. The six finalists will send their votes via to "The Poetry Contest" That is mean, and what is to prevent a tie?

3. The polls are public. People will be able to check to see your vote. How come I could see who has voted for whom before I voted, but not afterward?

It would have been nice to be able to view the picture while reading the poems. Is that possible?

as in the january contest, if there is a tie, it will be broken by "The Poetry Contest". since there are three of us this month (anna, liar, patrick), a tie is not possible.

unless it is a three way tie and we all have a different favorite, in which case, the three of us will wrestle for it. And I will win. I don't wrestle fair and I am fairly certain I could take on either one of the boys.

I didn't look at who voted for who before I voted. I just went in and read and frowned because I could only vote for one poem! lol

They're all great! Well done everyone who entered.

In January, all the 26 contestants could vote in the final round. It's all the same to me, but with only six people voting aren't the chances for a tie are much greater?
