Remember to Vote For the Harveys

imageWith the Harvey nominations coming out on a Saturday afternoon and considering the high turnover of news on the Internet, I thought a reminder to vote might be in order. Although the Harveys have their share of faults, many of them are diminished by more active participation. You can pick up a ballot and other voting information here.

This site has received complaints about numerous spelling errors on the final ballot, a ballot that looks like it was prepared at the same time the list was being made for public consumption as opposed to afterwards when corrections could be made by the nominees themselves. For accuracy's sake going int, here is what I could find with my meager and historically disqualified proofing skills.
Anthology: Fight should be Flight
Biographical/Historical: Milo George edited two issues of the Comics Journal that came out in 2004.
Biographical/Historical: Basic Book should be Basic Books
Colorist: Partricia Mulvihill should be Patricia Mulvihill
Continuing/Limited Series: Exhitbit A should be Exhibit A
Single Issue: Supernatural Law #101 should be Supernatural Law 101.

And here are some I would have a question about but lack the resources to find out for sure.
Anthology: Is McSweeney's Books the publisher of the Ware-edited Quarterly Concern or is McSweeney's?
New Series: Isn't "The First Hundred Days" the name of the first Ex Machina arc rather than the name of the series?

If I'm wrong, or if there are any others you've noticed and would like corrected for at least whatever tiny percentage of the comics community might go vote from here, please .(JavaScript must be enabled to view this email address).

*****

From Ralf Haring:
Confirmation on the Ex Machina series Title vs. arc title question.

From Jackie Estrada:
Best Letterer: Richard Starking should be Richard Starkings
Best Artist: John Cassady should be John Cassaday
Best Artist: Juanjo Guardino should be Juanjo Guarnido
Best Cover Artist: Juanjo Guardino should be Juanjo Guarnido
Best Inker: Andy Parks should be Ande Parks
Best Graphic Album of Original Work: Juanjo Guardinoshould be Juanjo Guarnido

"And I seriously doubt that 1602 is eligible for Best New Series, since it started in 2003 and ended in 2004."

From Andrew Farago:
Another vote against 1602's inclusion in its category.
