*Blogmaster Update: Voting ends Monday, May 23 at 11 PM Pacific Time. As of 9:45 PM Sunday, we are currently in 1st place in the "Most Beautiful" category. Pacifica has 370 votes to 2nd place Coral Gables, Florida's 262 votes. This is not the time to let up. We have Coral Gables down, so now it's time to step on their throats!!
Thank you to everyone who has voted!
We are doing great! At last check we are 48 votes ahead of Coral Gables FL for "Most Beautiful" and we have to stay there to be #1 in the "Most Beautiful" category...so keep voting today! They put it on their City Website, but we are doing better. We are sending this out to everyone we know and look what has happened in a day - yesterday we reached over one hundred votes in just one day - we are surging at the correct time. Today we need to keep it up! Let's keep the most beautiful title and since we have a couple of votes in the "Most Fun" category and the top vote getter only has 45 votes lets try for that category as well, focusing on surfing, hiking, biking, etc. We are way behind in Most Friendly so let's not dilute our vote.
Remember: we only have until tomorrow, May 23rd
Sign on to www.bestoftheroad.com,
register an email address and then write a review, but before you pick
the category to vote in make sure we are 50 ahead in the "Most
Beautiful" and if we are then start voting in the "Most Friendly." The
more we win the more likely they are to feature us in the Rand McNally
Atlas and an article in USA Today.
This is about the image of our city, this is about advertising! Let's keep it up and win two categories!
Good luck today

First the good news, the deadline has passed and Pacifica is ahead by 116 votes!
Now for the bad: Rand McNally has extended the deadline. From their website, "Due to overwhelming responses and your excellent displays of hometown pride, we've extended voting for the Best Small Towns in America until May 30th. Get your vote in before it's too late! "
Or as Yogi Berra said, "it ain't over 'till it's over, plus seven days."
"...Due to overwhelming responses and your excellent displays of hometown pride, we've extended voting for the Best Small Towns in America until May 30th..."
Which means they're unhappy with the lack of response.
Of course they are. Maybe trying to engineer the results a little? I voted for us but is it too late to clean up the pier? Yuck.
