Current standings in Best of Johnson County voting

Two weeks into the finals of the inaugural Best of Johnson County, and we’ve already had nearly 50,000 votes come in. With so much interest out of the gate, we wanted to give you a snapshop of the standings as we come up on the mid-point of the voting period.

You can check out how each of the five finalists in our 80 categories are faring below.

Note: Even with tens of thousands of ballots cast, sometimes just a couple of votes separate the honorees from those who wouldn’t make the cut.

Vote and you could win a chance at $500 to Prairiefire🔥🔥🔥!

Voting is quick and easy — and could earn you some serious cash to spend at one of the county’s premiere shopping centers.

  • Just go to the Best of Johnson County and select any category to start voting.
  • Make your pick from among the five finalists and then enter a valid email address to cast your ballot.
  • Anyone who casts at least 25 votes from the same valid email address will be automatically entered into a chance to win $500 to Prairiefire.
  • All users can cast one vote per category per day. So if you’ve got someone you’re super passionate about, don’t be afraid to support them multiple times.
