I’ve never heard that one, but I believe it. When I was at Boston magazine, a local pizza place tried to hijack the voting every for “Best Pizza.” But we could always tell, because the ballots were paper and we could see the similarities in handwriting.

Maybe that’s partly why more papers don’t have polls of that sort and leave the voting up to their editors.

Guess what? Some Objectivists and Scientologists hijacked the voting system and the top ten books on the second list were all by Ayn Rand and L. Ron Hubbard.
