Problem with 1950s era Voting

There was a problem with the site used for voting in the 1950s era, and unfortunately, it has started over as of today until Wednesday with a new link. So if you could vote again in this era with the updated link, that would be great.

So sorry that this happened! However, you will still be able to vote in the 1930s, 1960s, and 1940s here on my blog in Round 2 on time.

Thanks, everyone!
