It's that time of year again. Open balloting for the Gazette's Best of OKC ends later this week. Later, the top five will run on a final ballot in July.

There are fewer restaurant categories but more "Triple Crown" introspective questions that were fun answering:

Best Local Attraction

Best Example of Tax Dollars At Work

Best Way to Improve Life in OKC

Best View from a Window

Best Restored Building

Best Next Big Thing

Best Landscaping/Beautification

Best Thing to Show Out of Towners

Best Change That Should Happen to OKC

Best Thing About OKC that You Hope Never Changes

Best News We've Had in a Long Time

Best Thing Gov. Henry Has Done

Best Advertising Campaign

Best Evidence That OKC is Coming Alive

Best Situation Needing Investigation

If you like we can debate answers. Mine will come on the next post. You will have to pick up a Gazette and send in your paper ballot for the actual vote.

Yes, everyone please vote for situation needing investigation: Oklahoma City Urban Renewal Authority (OCURA).
