Davis Wiki's Best of Davis 08 - Davis

Voting is OVER! Voting took place between March 30 and May 2, 2008.

The California Aggie holds a Best of Davis contest every year where students vote on their Davis favorites. However, many complain this results in the establishments college freshman actually go to winning all best of Davis titles. The Davis Wiki community is certainly well more in the know than the average UCD student. Show off your Davis pride and vote for your favorite things about Davis.

How Voting worked

People edited the page and ranked the places they'd tried in order of preference. A simple Choice Voting election was conducted for each category to determine the winner.

2008-04-02 13:41:57 I voted today! —CurlyGirl26

we should have "I voted" stickers :)

Okay, done. Now people just need to print them up! —jw

2008-04-03 02:12:14 While my vote doesn't seem to be in the lead, I'm happily surprised Hunan isn't in 1st.... —AlvinTsao

2008-04-03 11:41:29 The sticker is awesome! When I commented earlier, I totally was thinking about those "I Voted Today!" stickers. Hee! —CurlyGirl26

2008-04-03 10:23:37 Be nice to me. I voted. —CarlosBarahona

2008-04-05 17:00:16 I'm concerned that Jusco's isn't on the list for Best Lunch Special or Sushi/Japanese. It fits into both categories, and the people should get to decide if it is a best of by voting, not summarily leaving them off of the list :( —lawstudent09

anyone can add a place to the list. The fact that it is not there means it was not nominated by anyone. Note that the only places that automatically got nominated were the places on the Aggie list, every other place was the result of some wikian nominating it. If you would like to add it, feel free to do so.

2008-04-05 23:39:52 This was a very serious and food oriented list. I think next time around we should try and bring in some activity and goofball categories. Or is there still time for some category additions? —CraigFergus

2008-04-10 12:34:55 ummm...is there a reason why Soga's isn't under fine dining? —ArianeMetz

Nobody has added it. If you want to, feel free.

2008-04-17 12:21:26 it's tragic that the davis food co-op was not listed for best sandwich. i put it on there, so take note of the addition if you enjoy their sandwiches. —campbellb

2008-05-01 22:53:57 i vote to remove best dentist as a category. Most people, don't try several dentists so everyone votes for the one they go to. It doesnt fit the category requirements set forth in the beninning. Best auto repair is an excellent idea though. —MattHh

I agree. Dentist was also added very late so it's not representative. Anyone else? —PhilipNeustrom

2008-05-04 00:23:07 Dr. Phillips wasn't on there, and he is excellent

none of those dentists have trains! —StevenDaubert

2008-05-04 07:43:26 I think there were certainly enough votes to determine a second and third place in each category. —MattHh
