The Liberal Democrat Voice Awards are but three days away. At 10 pm on Saturday 14 September, in Castle 2 of the Crowne Plaza, with cash bar on hand, and an imaginative dress code, the best in blogging, campaigning, social media and politics in general will be feted in a ceremony filled with razzmatazz, glitz and glamour.
Our Members’ Forum has now been emailed with the chance to vote for the majority of the awards. They will have first sight of those shortlists and will be able to pick their winner. This survey also contains questions on the likely Conference flashpoints. If you are a party member and you want a piece of his action, sign up here. If you’re not a party member, but want to join, you can do so here.
Here is the fourth of our shortlists being judged by our esteemed panel of judges. Today, it’s the turn of the Blog post of the Year. The nominees are:
David Boyle for Why Richard Grayson got it wrong
Sarah Brown for Why are UK Trans people going on about a spousal veto?
Mark Pack for: New Poster infographic: What the Liberal Democrats believe
Jennie Rigg for Artificial war within the Lib Dems, both sides win but everybody loses
Hannah Thompson for Dropping out:
Who Rules where for: Argonauts of the incredibly specific: an anthropological study of the Liberal Democrat animal

Sarah Brown’s post by far and away the best and most important of those. As such I predict Count Packula’s pretty picture will win.
Yeah, Sarah should win that, though if I had a vote Jennie would come a close second.
I wouldn’t have said that was the best of my posts *shrug* But then the ones I think are best are probably too sweary for awards.
I am still in awe of the last post on the list. Surprised and pleased to see it nominated.
(No interest to declare – I don’t know the author)
Hannah’s post is also an awesome piece, although I actually think it wasn’t even her most eye-catching this year.
(I do know her!)
Fabulous set of other short-listed blogs. Very flattered to be put in their company.
Very flattered to be in this list, and very flattered by the nice things said here. You’re all really great 🙂
