Voting Update: Potential Voting Fraud Uncovered!!!!
While the voting slowly approaches the close on Saturday, a potential ballot stuffing effort may have been uncovered!!!!! I'm gonna continue to monitor the situation and can assure you the process will not be tainted. When the final vote count is taken, I can guarantee you that I might be counting 'hanging chads' and chips till well into the wee hours of the 4th of July holiday, but a fair and accurate balloting process is promised.
Now, an update on the voting. It appears that there are 3 serious contenders for the honor of the "official name". They are:
Betty Beaver is still chewing up the competition
Christine has slipped a bit but is still clawing her way through the brush
Slick appears to have gotten hung up on a pine knot, but is hanging in there
Remember, voting will run through Saturday so you've still got a chance. HOWEVER, Tom,short of a miracle (or outright chicanery), I'm afraid Hazel and Willard are swimming together down the road to obscurity. It appears that Hazel will beat Willard rather handily, but I doubt she'll be more than a footnote in the cutlery history books. My condolences.

Normally, in Texas, we only vote once, but in keeping with the "new" politics, I tried to vote repeatedly. Unfortunately, I don't have decades of experience in these sorts of things and wasn't able to "vote often".

I think since fraud has taken place the final decision should be made by an outside independent contractor!!

Well, here in Fl, we never get results without counting at least three times and thats if there are only two candidates. Greg, sorry to hear but you'll be counting until next independence day if your counting chads.
Donnie says just name him Chad!!!! Dave thank your buddy at work for volunteering to settle it for us.

Christine Tucker is what Great Eastern Cutlery is all about. Naming the GEC beaver emblem for her would be a tribute she very richly deserves.
Chris is definetly the "busy beaver" at GEC and her efforts benefit all of us.
"VOTE FOR CHRISTINE."
