Copied from a request made over yonder.
Hello all,

I am a teacher in Boonton, NJ. This year our homerooms were assigned various universities. I, of course, chose Duke. To spread school spirit, each class wrote a fight song inspired by their university's fight song score. The team to get the most votes will have their song made the official Boonton Middle School fight song. Right now, the DUKE fight song is in second place to UNC....no!!!!! The DUKE fight song is truly better than UNC's. Yes, I am biased, but Duke's deserves the honor. I need your help. If you have 30 seconds of time, please, go to boontonschools.org, click on the middle school tab near the top of the page, and then go to the university fight song tab. Vote for DUKE #6. Today is the last day to vote, so any help you can give would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance!

UNC is closing the gap.

You can vote more than once!

It wouldn't let me vote twice on this computer, but I got in a vote on the computer across the hall. As people go to lunch, I'm going to dive on their computers here and vote. :D :duke:

Duke 43%, unc 41%. I've been stacking votes. :D It looks like stacking works if I go all the way out to this thread and go again. I could be wrong. The numbers have been increasing rather fast.

I've tried backing out, shutting down Google Chrome and using IE, etc., but it keeps telling me I've already voted. :( Last I saw, we were up by 8 votes.

Erase your cookies to vote again, or use another computer. Changing browsers (ie, Firefox to IE) doesn't help.

I erased my cookies, but it still wouldn't let me vote again. I'll go use the secretary's computer while she's at lunch.

The linked page no longer exists. I guess the poll has ended and I have no idea who won. Last I saw over yonder, we were down 303 - 302. Hope me made a late surge to the top, perhaps a shot by Laettner!
