Listening to Hannagriff show Scott Rabalais gets a vote for the HT winner. He mention that the fans get a say so in the vote 1 of the overall vote. Has anyone seen a site we as fans can go vote for bureaux? If so sticky it so we can get the votes flowing in.

I believe one of the 929 votes is from the Nissan Heisman fan poll.

So 1/929th, not 1/3.

Each Section within the United States has 145 media votes, totaling 870 media votes across the country. Additionally every former Heisman winner, 58 presently, has a vote as well. In 1999, The Heisman Trophy agreed to develop a special program to allow the public at large to become part of the balloting process by permitting one (1) fan vote eligible in the overall tabulation. This program once again continued this past season through a partnership with Nissan North America, bringing the total number of voters for the 2019 Heisman race to 929.

There is a fan vote, but the part about it being 1/3 is absolutely “fake news”. It counts as one singular vote among the hundreds of voters. But hey, 0.1% and 33% are pretty much the same right?

You need to go back and listen again to the segment. Fans get 1 vote (collectively) among 800+ media members who get to vote and all former Heisman winners that are still living (50-something).

Probably won't release a fan vote until they announce the finalists.

Here is an explanation:

Total number of votes totals 929 potential ballots. Fan vote counts for 1 vote.

Huh? Trey Lance is in 4th - ranking is in the upper left corner of each candidate. Hurts is 2nd at 16% and Tua is 3rd at 11%.
