minxybabySome people are having trouble with voting for Team Vicki.
You are allowed to vote everday. The trouble is that the service used for the poll records the time that you last voted. If you try to vote before 24 hours is up, you will get the message "You've Already Voted!" For example: If you vote at 11:45pm on 5 Oct, it will not let you vote again at 12:15am on 6 Oct.
If that happens, just delete your internet cookies (Tools -> Internet Options -> Delete Cookies). You should be able to go back and enter your vote again, this time having it accepted. It should give you the message "Thank you!"
Another way to ensure you can vote without having your vote deleted is to vote at roughly the same time each day.
Please note that if you continue to delete your cookies and vote several times a day, your extra votes will be disqualified. Your IP is recorded and any extra votes are removed from the server at the end of every day.
You can still vote on multiple computers (home & work). I appreciate all your efforts to recruit friends and family into this race!
The contest runs through all of October, so please continue to vote daily!
