Honestly, we expected better out of you…
We give you the opportunity whittle a field of 64 down to 32, and this is how you repay us? With these selections? We kid, we kid.
First of all, we’ve got to give huge props to the kids who campaigned exceedingly hard for themselves. The speeches, scandalous pictures, bribes, slander, and back-handed promises were hilarious and (to some degree) effective.
Rumors of voting irregularities have surfaced, so those have been investigated, and in one egregious case - adjusted… though it didn’t make a difference in the final result. Now, we need to fire our fraud department.
So, below… the winners and match-ups for the second round. Italicized names indicate the final margin was less than 10 votes, bold names indicate an upset. Watch the bottom half of that Tatumfor3 region, yikes.

Yinka Dinka Dooo… I mean, Dare.
That Chilltown-I Party w/ Smoot second-round tango is the blogfrica echo of the great Southern U-George Washington match of ‘93. I think it were ‘93, anyway.

K-squared’s defeat is yet another reason to hate Big Blue. I’ll have to cheer for Sweater Vest a little harder this year, Yostal. haha
