Voting begins for Best of Bonner County

SANDPOINT — The polls are now open.

Polls will open for final voting on Thursday, July 1, and close on Friday, July 9. Winners will be announced on Saturday, August 28, in a special edition of the Bonner County Daily Bee. You can vote here: https://bonnercountydailybee.secondstreetapp.com/Best-of-Bonner-County-2021/

Bill Davis, Daily Bee general manager, said that in the past, attempts to stack the ballot couldn’t always be detected or eradicated. However, that has changed, as Best of Bonner County voting now employs new technology and a new process to weed out ballot-stacking attempts.

“One email address,” Davis said, “one vote.”

He noted that voters can leave the site at any time during the voting period and come back and vote some more, but not on any categories they’ve already voted on.
