Update from (hopefully) a future Olympic Torch Bearer...

As it turns out, there are two glitches in the system:

1) Voting only works with Internet Explorer. Firefox, Safari, I'm sorry. The Beijing Olympics don't like you.

2) It seems that you can vote ONCE EVERY DAY. This may be a glitch, or they may have just not listed that you can do it. Either way, this means you can vote a lot more times.

THANK YOU for those who have voted already. And a BIG thank you if you vote again, and again, and again...

Here's the webpage again:

Help Matt Scranton become an Olympic Torchbearer

Friends,

I've applied to become a torchbearer for the upcoming 2008 Olympics. Part of the initial decision is based on how many votes you get online, which means, I NEED YOUR HELP!!

You can vote one time per ISP number, which means go to the university library and vote on different computers. Go to Internet cafes and vote. Vote on your home computer, work computer. Leave comments too to get more attention!

100 people make it to the final round, so this is a goal within reach. That is a lot of people and you can help me be one of them!
