The Grammys and the Oscars aren’t the only awards on people’s minds this month. The Washington City Paper’s Best of D.C. 2011 reader poll is in full swing; final day to vote is Tuesday, March 15.
City Paper’s annual online reader poll seeks to find the Best of D.C. in dozens of categories from best lounge to best yoga studio. Last year, 225,000 votes were cast and businesses in the Borderstan coverage area raked in the honors — 30 businesses in the Dupont-Logan-U Street area were winners and another 33 were runners up.
When you go to vote, we hope you will for Borderstan in the Best Local Blog/Blogger category. While you are at it, please throw your support to Luis Gomez Photos in the Best Photography Services category. Luis is co-editor of Borderstan and provides most of the photos you see on the site. He also has his own photo blog, One Photograph A Day and chronicles the life of Lupe.

The poll has also added Best of D.C. Twitter categories for #bestfoodtruckontwitter, #bestdctwitter and #bestfaketwitter. We’re having a blast tweeting the latest and greatest news happening in Borderstan so, if you’re on twitter would you consider voting us for BestDCTwitter?
