You can vote over and over. They are in second but a distant spread away from first. I've put in some hundreds. Join me!
I finally figured out how to automate this. Wish I it did yesterday. I'm pretty sure the one in the lead is running a script to do the same. It might be impossible to knock them down enough. The gap is large. I will be putting in 1000's of clicks. Do the same! I used iKey to automate it on a Mac.

will the barr bros be on another vote after they most likely lose this one? or is this their one shot to make it onto Music Television?
That's quite a motley crew of musicians on the ballot

I think I wasted some time figuring out how to automate the vote. The rules say that scripted/automated votes will be discounted. I'm not sure how they figure it out but I ran it for hours putting in a couple of thousand clicks and that leader didn't budge.

They probably just figure that no one would really sit and click for hours, and throw out votes over a threshold from the same IP.
I threw in a random wait time between my automated clicks, just to keep it looking a little less automated, but it still looks like they ignored my few thousand votes.
