It's just the cult of "Cinderella" driving the voting.

After they finally lose their newfound fans can just pop their ancient copy of "Hoosiers" in the VCR and root for Hickory...

BTW, what the hell does "LMNOPU" mean. I Googled it and came up blank. Is that some Twitter abbreviation or something that I know nothing about?

Doesn't take much to skew a poll with that small a sample size. Eventually, Vermont will give cows the vote, and the sample size should more than double.
