A tale of two polls

The U.S. Chamber Institute for Legal Reform is having their annual tongue-in-cheek poll to decide which lawsuit filed this year was the most egregious abuser of the legal system. You can go to the facesoflawsuitabuse.org site to vote for yourself. My choice was the illegal immigrant suing the rancher, but several others are worthy of consideration – so far the illegal immigrant suit is winning with 35% of the vote.

Speaking of winners, overnight the first semifinal of my local blog poll closed up and the results were a surprise!

afterthegoldrush, which barely squeaked into the semifinals as a wildcard and #6 seed (out of 6), blew away the field by garnering 52% of the vote, with Delmar DustPan (#4 seed as a first-round winner) putting itself in the position for the wildcard with 35 percent. The original #1 seed, Alive in the Chesapeake, ended up with just 13% of the vote.

The second semifinal will feature first round winners Twirling, Twirling, Twirling Towards Freedom and Salisbury News along with wildcard Right Coast Girl. It will be over by Christmas Day and the finals will be picked up next week.
