Dudes - I call foul play. 3 Cod must have set up some sort of algorithmic robo-vote to win. They got like 900 votes in a day. It's time for Patch to invest in a real online polling platform. Check the IP addresses ... Allowing more than 1 vote per IP address is just amateur hour. The stakes at hand are huge ... Patch journalists gots to do some actual reporting on this miscarriage of justice.

Put your real name up. Not "The Kid." I will take a lot of heat for my comments I'm sure. I love both 3 Cod and Maddie's, but Maddie's wasn't even on the original voting list. My criticism is for the originators. If you're going to do this sort of polling, you can't leave anyone out and the voting has to be precise. These things do have an impact on people. It's unfair to do it on an amateur basis.
Get it right or don't do it at all!

Hi guys! The same polls run on all of our North Shore sites every week. They go up at 5 a.m. and run through Friday morning. Our initial post includes the businesses already listed in our directory - we add businesses we've missed when they are suggested by our readers. Maddie's wasn't submitted until Thursday afternoon and we added it. We are working on getting scientific polling. Until then the winner is determined by a formula that includes the poll results, reviews and emails from happy customers.
