Members’ Choice Voting: Spring & Fall Poetry Contest winners are selected through members’ choice voting. After contest closing, an online form is sent to all members where they have the opportunity to vote for their top ten poems. The top ten ranked choice poems will be included in next year’s publication of The Mountain Troubadour. The members’ choice vote uses the Borda Count Method to calculate the choice ranking.
