Voting is now closed for slot number 35 in the community prospect poll, and the results are very close at the top:

David Dahl 27

Matt Barnes 24

Gary Sanchez 22

Alen Hanson 20

Others lag behind by a somewhat wider margin.

To speed the process of getting to the lower slots, I propose we do a runoff with these four, but just to see how it works, here's a twist: only three of them will get put immediately on the list as choices 35 to 37, while the fourth one goes back into the pool -- a "devil take the hindmost" vote. Consistent with that, vote for three of these guys, not all four. We'll see how it works, not only in sorting these four out, but also in the next round, when we see whether the candidate that falls back into the general pool still finishes ahead of everyone else as the 38th prospect.

So voting is now open, and will be open until, let's say, tomorrow evening. Vote only for one, two or three of these four candidates; no write-ins, please. There's room for discussion below.

REMEMBER:

+1 OR #1 = 3 PTS

+2 OR #2 = 2 PTS

+3 OR #3 =1 PTS
