Hi, Everyone,
Brattleboro has been doing well in the voting for Top 10 craft towns, but St. Petersburg is putting on a drive that has us more than 200 votes behind them. That was after we caught up to them and passed them briefly. If we want to have a shot at this, we need to share it and remember to vote every day for Brattleboro. Can you do it?
Best,
Greg Worden

No. 2
As of now, we need 235 votes to catch up with St. Pete.
Voting against Florida
Easy to vote, and one can vote every day.
Giving St. Pete a run for their money is a fun summer activity. That a little Vermont town is nipping at their heels is kinda funny. St. Pete is a big place, with about a quarter of a million residents.
(What we should do is partner with them, and all go down for a crafty visit in February.)
Closing in
Bratt is still #2, we need another couple hundred votes! Keep voting!

Vote for Brattleboro - Best Craft Town
Three hours later (than the last posting here) and Brattleboro, population 12,000 has closed to just 50 votes behind St. Pete’s population 250,000. Come on – we can close this gap if we Brattleboroans and friends of Brattleboro mount a concerted effort and vote every day for the next 8 days until Aug 30 at http://americancraftweek.com/top10.
We're #1
By a squeaky margin, so please keep voting every day!
Bumping this back
Bumping this back up on the “Recent Comments” list, so that no one forgets or gets complacent. It’s been neck-and-neck for a while, so it seems that St. Pete is putting out a big effort as well.
Remember, they’ve got twenty times the population.
Would be great if we can pull away from the pack.
11 votes behind!
Our little town is only 12 votes out of 1st place! Please vote!
oy.
We’re 200 votes behind.
catching up again ...
… narrowed to 130 at the moment
Neck and neck
You can still vote for Brattleboro. Don’t get sleepy. St Pete is pulling ahead.
Multiply Your Vote
The website doesn’t seem to mind if one votes multiple times in a day by visiting the site via different browsers.
We're the Underdog
Vote early and often!
A final reminder.
Last day for voting. Pull out all the stops today.
(I think we should get a special ward for percentage of our population. With over 4,000 votes so far, we’ve hit 1/3 of our census numbers. 4k in St Pete is puny by comparison.)
We're Number 2!
It appears that we came in second place.
I still think, by percentage of population, that we are more crafty than St. Pete.
We should have a craft-off.
