    I tried to vote on the quilt contest, but it would not give me a voting screen, only the the current vote count. I have been the only one to vote on this computer. There is definitely something wrong with your voting setup.

    I just checked your IP address and I have a vote registered from your IP address at October 7, 2011 @ 10:34 am
