DORK 4 PREZ
The other day I got to thinking, why shouldn’t I be the President?
Maybe I could be president of the blogosphere….. OK….. Since I’m now a politician I have act like one and promise you GREAT things. Your weenie will grow so big you’ll have to coil it up like a lasso. A suckling pig in every pot! (bleah!) You will lose 40 KG by eating cotton candy. All the celebs you love will be pursuing you! Your HDTV will grow so big you won’t be able to get it out of your house. Your blog subscriptions will positively explode! Am I getting the hang of political promises or what?
Voila! the contest is born. Here’s how it works:
- Vote for me with your blog domain. Anyone can vote and get blogrolled, EC member or not!! Voting puts you in the database.
- After you vote, take the code for the widget, customize it so that your domain is the referrer, and put it on your blog or website. Any domain (other than the referrer themself) who votes for me from a widget with your domain as referrer is credited to you as a referral. At the end of the time whichever domain refers the most votes wins the 2000 EC minimum, (plus any donations we might get.) Any blog or website can have the widget! If a non EC domain wins, I will dispose of the prize according to your wishes.
And I repeat, everyone who votes gets on the Dork 4 Prez blogroll. So everyone wins. Check back once in a while. You can see the blogroll growing as the contest progresses.
Here is the voting widget:
Here’s the HTML for you to copy, customize, & paste to your blog:
Donate to the campaign
Donate EC to the campaign if you would like. For each 10 EC you donate you will get 1 referral. Leave me a message in EC to let me know which domain should get the credit. All donations will be added to the grand prize. Sailor over at Nice2All has already pledged 3000 EC
Fine Print:
I need at least 2000 votes total in order to award the prize.
I am no longer on EC so I will not enter. It is a pity, I would have liked to be your running mate. 🙂
I still have a smaller site on EC so I am prepared to make your competition a bit more exciting. I will donate 3000EC which you can use to increase the prize. I will only have this amount by next Friday or Saturday, but will forward it to your account as soon as I have it. How is that for a public commitment?
DORK 4 PREZ – makes sense to me, go get ’em.

Woo hoo Sailor, Thanks! Anyone can enter. You still get rolled. so go for it. vote 4 me anyway. I’m sure the contest will run for a long time, (I’m not the most popular person in the galaxie.) I wanted 1 vote per EC given away so now I will have to get 5000 votes if you donate 3000. I should amend the post to solicit donations!! That’s OK. You can put the widget on any website, cuz if the winner can’t receive EC to that domain they can designate someone who can and I’ll honor the request.
I am about two to three days away from having the EC I promised. I will not enter as some folk will say that is not fair (it most probably will not be). This is a unique kind of competition and that is what attracted me in the first place. Mark my words, something similar will be all over the place soon. It is a great idea and folks tend to copy great ideas.

Oh Right Huge Donors probably should not enter as they will just buy the win. You can be my running mate, though, whatever that means. I’ll have to figure it out. I’d really rather it spread virally. ….
Have not forgotten about you. Currently have 2104 credits, will be transferring soon.

I have transferred the EC. I have no idea how much EC takes for the transfer, please let me know if you did not receive at least the promised amount. Good luck with the competition.

I’m afraid I can’t give you my vote, but if you vote for me there could be a cabinet post in it for you!
BT I intend to put you in the software as an opposing candidate. And unlike DIEBOLD, I won’t program it to skip every third vote for you!

[…] you enjoyed this little bit of frivolity, after you stumbled and dugg this, please vote for ME for president. I’m only running for president of the blogosphere, but surely I’m at […]

Wow!, this was a real quality post. In theory I’d like to write like this too – taking time and real effort to make a good article… but what can I say… I keep putting it off and never seem to get something done

I truly loved reading this article document, I’d been simply just irritation to understand can you deal presented articles or blog posts? My organization is continuously on the lookout for anyone to generate trades using and basically considered I may question.
