So happy for this win. Getty deserves it, and so does the SMA cause. I hope you manage to celebrate after all this excitement. I had a doctor’s appointment this morning too, and just got back to this news! WTG, GettyOwl Team! ---

Yay!! Did they give any inkling as to the number of votes each candidate got? I’m wondering if we completely blew 'em out of the water :D. ---

They did not give any hints. Putting my analytical hat on… Getty’s family votes probably roughly cancel out Westins’ family votes, give or take a few. Getty’s friend votes probably roughly cancel out Westins’ friend votes, give or take a few. Getty’s votes form the general public probably roughly cancel out Westins’ general public votes, give or take a few. I didn’t think either of the two cute babies would just run away with the public vote. Then you have the SDMB votes and SMA community votes putting Getty way over the top. My hunch is that Getty had a significant advantage each day based upon the ability to mobilize and turn out a voter base, if for no other reason. I don’t know that Westin had a bunch of willing voters spanning the globe. ---

I posted on Facebook that sure, the other babies were cute, but not nearly as cute as Getty & that wasn’t even her cutest picture! She’s a lot cuter now! ---
