They can't help themselves.

The leftists cannot stop themselves from committing vote fraud. They cannot even avoid the temptation to cheat on an internet poll of who has the best blog.

The awards page has the story and a partial remedy.

It seems that leftists posted a cheat code at DailyKos that caused thousands of votes to be registered from the same IP.

Apparantly this cheating resulted from an ingrate leftist's response to a good deed by Wizbang. No good deed goes unpunished.

For the most part, the leftists can't even admit that the concept of cheating is wrong. Check the awards page comments and you will see what I mean.

Thanks also to LGF for pointing this out.

It may seem trivial. After all, we are talking only about an internet poll. But it is very telling of the left's tactics. There is no election that they can leave uncorrupted. They cannot help themselves. That is why we must remain vigilant to protect the integrity of every real election in the future - as well as the Web Awards.

Don't be discouraged by this. You can still go to the awards page and vote. The cheating affects only the main category. This blog is nominated only in the 3,500 to 5,000 rank category.
