Vote NOW in the New Haven Advocate Readers' Poll 2010

Every year, the New Haven Advocate does a Readers' Poll. It's going on right now. You can pick up an issue and fill out a ballot by hand or you can fill it out online by visiting New Haven Advocate 2010 Readers' Poll Ballot.

You have to vote in at least 20 categories for your ballot to count. This can be difficult sometimes. Knowing that, here is what we voted for. Vote as you please, of course. We just happen to like these places.

It's snowing out and this is one good way to make your time indoors productive today (we think so anyway). We'd surely appreciate your support. Thank you in advance to the best customers anywhere (way beyond just New Haven County, for sure).
