Vote in our poll: What’s your favorite special event in downtown Belleville?

Good morning, BND readers!

We’ve decided to extend the deadline for our poll asking you to vote for your favorite downtown Belleville special event.

The poll will now be open through Thursday, on the eve of two major events: the Belleville Santa Parade and Christkindlmarkt.

No, we are not trying to sway the vote, but it does make the poll all the more timely.

We already see some competition among our voters: After a small story about the poll in the Sunday BND, the Old Belleville Historical Luminary Walk jumped ahead of Art on the Square and Oktoberfest in the voting. All three still trail the Chili Cook-off, which is in first place as of this writing.

To be clear, this poll is not scientific. In fact, we invite you to vote as many times as you want. It’s all for fun, BND readers.

So if you haven’t voted yet, dive in.

We’ll let you know the rankings in a follow-up story after the poll closes.
