Ahem. Is this thing on?

My fellow Americans….

All right, campaign speeches aren’t my thing, but please vote for me in the Minnesota Book Awards Reader’s Choice poll over Facebook way. You can vote once a day until the end of March. And you can tell your friends. And they can tell their friends. I don’t even think they have to be Minnesotans or read books. I’m not saying “stuff the ballot box,” I’m just saying, you know, that there’s no proper screening. No ID, no registration. Just click on in and vote. Easy peasy. Even if I don’t win, maybe I can take a close enough second to demand a recount.
