Vote for Brady Quinn

Nissan, the sponsoring corporation for the Heisman Trophy, has the ability to cast one vote deciding the winner. They have decided to pass this vote onto the public and allow people to vote online to decide for themselves. Not many Notre Dame fans seem to know about this as Brady Quinn currently holds only 2 percent of the vote. Troy Smith holds a commanding lead, followed by Steve Slaton of West Virginia and McFadden of Arkansas. Slaton holds votes in the hundreds of thousands, while Quinn has around 2,500.

The site allows voting only once per week, so get behind this vote to ensure that Quinn gets recognition for the hard work that he has put in this year both on and off the field, as success does not come just by showing up on Saturday (especially for a quarterback). Surely a school like Notre Dame has the combined fan power to cast some votes in meaningful numbers to change the current state of the fan poll.here's the website:

Hey -- I just voted 0 and it noted 46% of the vote for Brady. Good job, Godfather! When he wins the trophy, he should call you to thank you --

Don, you're a miracle worker. Brady is indeed beating Smith by 46-23% margin. Remarkable. And yes, I've casted my vote.

Very strange...I just went back to the leaderboard and all of a sudden Smith has 34% of the vote and Brady only 13%. Smith has over 900,000 votes when he had less than 200,000 a few minutes ago. Hmmm.....

Troy is still leading, 35%, with over 1.2M votes. Brady is second, 21%, almost 750K votes. Slayton 3rd, 18%.

Brady's catching up. Smith is still at 35% but Brady is now at 28% with over 1.2M votes. Smith is between 1.4M and 1.4M, so the absolute vote difference has closed a bunch as well. Tell all your friends to vote.
