Help Us Name the Best of the Best in Wyandotte

You nominated your favorites and now it's time to vote in the Wyandotte Patch Readers' Choice 2012.

 

There is a lot to celebrate about Wyandotte–great family-friendly activities, great food, great local shops and services.

But what's the best? 

Earlier this summer, we asked you to help us gather nominations for Patch Readers' Choice 2012. For three weeks in June and July, you told us about your favorite hair salons, your favorite dentist and the best places to eat, drink and be merrry in Wyandotte.

Now it's time to put those nominations to a vote.

Cast your vote by Aug. 17 and help us decide who's best. Whichever business gets the most votes will be named the Readers' Choice winner in that category. You must log in to Patch to vote and you may vote only once in each category. The winners will be announced Aug. 24.

(Having trouble viewing the polls? If you're reading this on our mobile site, know that you have to view the desktop version to see them.)

Happy voting!

Due to a technical glitch, please vote by clicking the individual category links below, rather than through the embedded polls.

It appears only my vote for best non-profit was recorded. All the other categories I voted in show zero votes.

My apologies. It seems to be working for some users and not for others. We're working on a fix to get individual voting articles on the site so that everyone's votes will be counted. Stay tuned. And thanks for being interested enough to let us know about the hiccup.

Hi, Bruce. We are aware of that unfortunate error. The problem seems to be with multiple polls on the same story. We are adding links above to individual polls, category-by-category. If you click on each separate poll in the story above, you should be able to vote without a problem. My apologies for the confusion.

Hey, Sue. Users are limited to one vote per poll. If your vote was counted the first time around, it will not let you vote again. But if it wasn't counted, it will accept it. So please give it a shot.

Hey, Brad. Sorry for the confusion. Here is the link directly to the poll you asked about: http://patch.com/A-vq1R. Please direct people to that link as comments will not be counted as votes.

Hi, K. We accepted nominations on the site for weeks and no one nominated WAG in the best place to get a pet category. The only groups that received nominations and that are being voted on in that category are Shelter to Home and Wyandotte Animal Shelter. However, WAG was nominated in the best nonprofit category. Thanks for your interest!

Thanx for all the votes for WAG Animal Rescue. We will celebrate 25 years in 2013 which
