NL 1B Voting Update- Prince's lead widens!

[RU Rah Rah]

What's with the JS and (purported) voter fraud? Biskupic ran out of steam on that front, so they're going to turn to Bud?

there will be an article in the JS soon about a group of about 10 people that go to MP often. How they together punched between 100 and 200 thousand ballots. How MP ran out of all star ballots so they went to wrigley and MN to pick up more. I have seen these guys in action sitting outside before a game punching boxes of ballots at a time.

those are the people at the player's lot everyday...

 

I saw them when I was there on the 19th, they had 4-5 boxes.

Its nice to see the Brewers finally getting some love. I wish JJ could pull it off too but I doubt there is time to make up the votes. I can't believe Andruw Jones is 5th in OF voting and he is hitting .197 what a joke.

Right now, all of those "offline" ballots are being dumped into the mix and tabulated under tight security. Then, that number goes into the database while the clicks keep on coming here at MLB.com.

as mentioned earlier, vote totals have been from online voting only. if voting at miller park has indeed been brewers-centric, prince fielder should win easily . . . with j.j. hardy having an outside chance to win the starting nod.

I could be wrong, but i think voting closes tonight at midnight. No? Yes? Or maybe that's tomorrow night.

[pretendastronaut]

It ends Thursday night.

If you vote more than 25 times in a day, do they just stop counting them? I've been getting my 25/day in. They'll let you keep going but I don't want to waste my time.

I wish the stupid voting system would simply allow you to vote 25 times at once. It's so annoying going through and simply re-casting the same ballot for 20 minutes. Of course, I'd assume it's for security purposes and to avoid ballot stuffing.

^^^It's to get a true measure of how badly you actually want those players to the All-Star game.

[Paul77]

MLB is so afraid of a repeat of the "Nomar" incident of a few years ago. I understand the concern, but I wish they could come up with an easier system. Then again, I've got no real ideas on how to improve it.

[Kurt]

What would be the point if you could vote 25 times at once? It's not that much effort..

[bstrando21]

I guess we'll see later today if the Prince's lead held up and how much he beat an MVP out by for the starting role in the All-Star game! If any of you are on facebook, you should check out this Prince Fielder group. It's the fastest growing Prince group out there and I might need a helping hand from someone to keep it up to date. Thanks.

i was thinking 1 vote per email address would be a start, but that doesn't prevent ballot stuffing at miller park. There isn't a way to fix it.
