The votes are in, and Wulfgar! has tabulated them. Before I get to that, though, I feel compelled to comment on an anonymous email he received, accusing him of offering this contest in order to drive traffic to his website.
I assume that this email was not sent by a Montanan. I assume this for two reasons. First, because most of us, even townies, understand the importance of community in rural areas, and appreciate the community-building efforts of our neighbors. Second, Montanans generally are quite willing to put our names to our opinions.
With that out of the way, on to the winners. I’m not going to list the Montana State sites, because even though they are useful, I find them boring. Go to A Chicken Is Not Pillage for those and for further details and notes on the polling.
