Good luck everyone! So many fantastic entries to choose from…it’ll be hard to pick a favorite!
I was so happy to see such a variety of ideas on how to save and repurpose stuff! It made me much more aware of my own tossing out habits and has given me a new respect for those who truly enjoy taking old stuff and giving it new life!
Good luck, everyone…I voted (in my head) for all of you, but voted (for real) for my favorite!

I think I voted? I’m not seeing a Vote button to confirm my choice as in the swap poll, but the post seems to be remembering my choice. I didn’t pay close enough attention to the number of voters before I picked to recognize whether I increased it.
I prefer polls like this that count how many people vote but do not show how many votes each entry got. In some cases, like the swap poll, it is ok.

Oh, totally agree. I just meant my only frame of reference is the swap poll, which had a specific action for confirming my vote. I realize now that was likely because that poll allows multiple selections, so unless someone says otherwise I’m content I’ve done my civic LC duty here

oh, me, too…I voted in the swap and got confused on this one…ha ha…I am with you there…my brain only remembers what I did last and new stuff blows it all away! ha
I can’t seem to vote at all. 
Can you only vote if you didn’t make an entry?
@sheepBlue
I can’t vote either. I did not enter the contest.
Something seems to be wrong with the voting mechanism.
once you highlight with a dot, the voting count goes up and it is done…I was shocked at how fast it went…I was not sure I was voting either!

I don’t seem to be able to vote… no dot highlighting and the count isn’t going up?
Have you tried refreshing your page?
Just tried but still can’t click on any option.
@sweets4ever is it possible that AD’s problem is browser-related?? I’m not sure what the problem is.
@appledainty and @madebyBeaG were you able to make it work?
Adding a note, I just tried a different browser and had the same result. I was able to vote in the F&T poll and the dot there showed up as filled.
I am unable to vote as well.
Could it be that while the entries were closed the voting was accidentally closed too?
I cleared the cash of my browser, restarted it, and still cannot vote.
I’ve been having the same issue; the total number of votes has been the same number all day, and I did refreshing the browser and clearing my cache, and tried on mobile and PC. It is possible my vote is among the total number, but now that other folks are mentioning it and they’ve tried voting too (with no change in number of votes) I’m guessing there’s something fishy. But I’m rooting for everyone, so I won’t feel cheated if I can’t vote. 
Um, so there was a button that said the poll was closed but I’m pretty confident I never pushed it. Someone try again who hasn’t voted…
