2006 Popularity Poll Results

Please note that the 2006 Pop Poll winners are determined from data collected in 2006 since the poll is not tabulated until late in the year.

Many thanks go to the Regional Publicity Directors and Tabulators of each Region and well as everyone who took the time to vote. Without you this report could not have been assembled.
