Tomorrow, Humboldt will (hopefully) flock to its respective polling places, do some soul searchin’ and ultimately fill-in (all the way, now) some little bubbles in the name of democracy. Make sure you vote Tuesday, citizen. Freedom isn’t free, they say.  

But whoever is filling our local seats of power come January, these folks work for us. In an attempt to help them serve us better, LoCO is gonna get weird with its weekly, dumb popularity poll. Will this work? Jah knows?! The stakes are low though, so all will be well.

So, in traditional Humboldt Approved fashion, please do some nominating in the comment section below in response to this query: What is the most viable way to ensure stability for Humboldt’s economic future? It’s a biggie.

As always, your reminder of how to make your vote count: 

To vote, look through the comments of this Humboldt Approved poll. If someone has already nominated the answer you would give for this week’s category, click the upvote arrow. If you don’t see your desired Humboldt Approved answer nominate it in a comment for others to upvote. (Please be careful to not duplicate answers; redundant answers will be deleted and potential associated upvotes will be lost.) Feel free to make your case by replying to/cheering on the answer you love most, but again the number by the arrows on the initial nomination is what counts.

You can vote for as many nominees as you deem worthy but, of course, the more you do that the more watered down your initial vote becomes. That’s math.

We reserve the right to delete superfluous/lame comments that make the voting/comment section hard to sift through. Please try not to get offended when your comment battle reply is deleted. We’re trying to do something here.

While many weeks we look for two winners — one winner from the metropolises of Eureka and Arcata, and one from Humboldt’s smaller communities — due to the nature of this category, this time we’re gonna limit it to one. Voting closes next Friday at noon and soon after a winner will be declared.

OK. Cast some vision below.
