If you want to vote for a new local business to win $10,000 in i.e.‘s “Start-Up Competition”, you’re going to have to wait. Over a quarter of a million hits in three hours has crashed the voting page. As a result, i.e. has suspended online voting.
Here’s i.e.’s statement:
But rest assured, we are working to correct the issue, suspend voting and re-launch the online voting period. In this way, we’ll level the playing field and give everyone a chance. It’s not ideal, but I think we can all agree that it’s the fairest, most community-minded solution.
They added: “We thank you for your patience, flexibility and enthusiasm. We will be in touch shortly with more details and the new voting schedule.”
