Washington City Paper is once again running their "Best of DC" program, where readers get to vote on their favorite restaurants, entertainment, services and of course, best community blog! Like this one!

You can vote in the following categories:

FOOD & DRINK
ARTS & ENTERTAINMENT
GOODS & SERVICES
PEOPLE & PLACES

What's new this year is that you have to login to vote and can only vote once per category -- so pick all the People & Places or all the Restaurants you want to vote for, and then submit. Then you won't be able to vote again.

I'd love to have your vote for Best Community Blog for 2018!

Vote for Petworth News >

Petworth News has been selected by readers as the runner-up for the past two years, and I'd be honored to do at least the same this year!

Here's what the voting page looks like...
