I've been speaking with a lot of ad agencies recently, and they all make up clever words for their services: Socializming, WOMing, exBrandocity, Momania, etc.Anyway, I have big news, so I want to make up a word too. "Defraudulizing". It's something we do to make sure when people in a city are done voting each year, we have the most accurate "best of" list possible.
The big news...we just finished defraudulizing Detroit (Phony word and alliteration = two points) and it's official: Detroit crushed it. In year 3, WDIV, our partner, collected more than 180,000 votes in two months. That's a new CityVoter record.
More than 65% of voters took time to leave a recommendation for someone else. That's more than 80,000 recommendations this year alone. We'll be announcing winners shortly, but CityVoter and WDIV are enormously proud of our 4 The Best list. It is a wonderful feeling to know we were able to generate all this publicity for local business owners.
Congrats to all the businesses who participated. And congrats Detroiters...this is a phenomenal resource for people trying to discover something new and fun about the motor city. Thank you Heather and team for all your hard work.

Does City voter not know when Midnight is? The contest for the Omaha location sent emails to business orders on august 31st stating that the contest was to end at midnight on Sept 4th when in fact they did not end it until Midnight the 5th. FYI midnight on the 4th is 12am right after 11:59pm on the 3rd..There should have been no voting during the day on the 4th. The fact that city Voter changed the contest end date without notifiy the contest particpants has caused KETV in Omaha, City Voter and their contests in general all integrety. City Voter should do the right thing and admit their mistake and throw out all the votes that were passed their orginally stated end date of MIDNIGT the 4Th
