Two days in, WW’s 2008 Best of Portland Poll just passed 300 votes. It’s far too early to pick favorites, but some interesting trends are developing:

First, the district with the most votes so far is The People’s Republic, with The Arboretum and Neglected Southwest tied for second. The district that fields the most ballots will get a special prize (we’ll announce exactly what that will entail soon), so get your neighbors voting!

Second, there’s a tie for Best Blog between Jack Bog’s Blog and Geek in the City.

Finally, the frontrunner for Best Local Athlete is a dead heat between Brandon Roy and The Timbers’ Takayuki Suzuki. Suzuki’s currently in the lead by about five points. Blazer bloggers? Timbers fans? You have your work cut out for you.
