Great story. And to the sponsors, great too! .. as now I won't have to switch to a different brand of toothpaste.   8)

Since it has been officially announced, I just sent an email to the only contact I have, asking if it was possible to get some of the voting stats for curiosity's sake. 

[Jeff]

Here is the reply I received asking for a vote count. I think this answer will suffice, since its probably the best we are going to get. :D
*********************
Regarding the vote count, I am not able to release how many votes (or percentage of the vote) you or any of the candidates received, but I can say you received substantially more votes than most of the semi-finalists. So kudos to you on activating your community. Hope that helps

I don't know if anyone remembers the Wonder Twin cartoon series, but when I read Jeff's most recent post I thought "Community Powers Activated!"  ;D

A bit late to the party but I just got to say congratulations big fella!
The before and after pics are truly awesome.  Actually it is a wonder that there is room in your body for such a big heart.  You continue to be an inspiration 

[mburrow]

congratulations

[petefrom bearswamp]

I too failed to keep up with your effort
You are obviously a very motivated, caring individual
way to go!

[doctorb]

I didn't bother to follow up on this 'cause I knew you would win ;)  All of the results/announcements came when I was in Canada, so forgive my tardy congratulations.  Even if I am the last member to take heart in your victory, it's your victory that counted.  Way to go.  (I think we blitzed them inthe voting!).
