Why are you including Great Lakes as a Lakewood Winner? Nothing against Great Lakes, I just am unaware of the Lakewood connection.

While I love Lakewood ... and actually agree with some of these choices ... I have to say that when I see these types of polls I am reminded of the WMMS-Rollling Stone Magazine ballot box stuffing controversies during the 1980's.

"Rolling Stone named WMMS "Radio Station of the Year" nine straight years (1979–87) as part of its annual Readers' Poll, but a February 1988 front-page story in The Plain Dealer revealed station employees had stuffed the annual survey's ballot box for the 1987 poll to allow for the possibility of a tenth straight win the following year. Lonnie Gronek, then general manager of the station, claimed in The Plain Dealer article that the process had gone on "for years."" --Wikipedia
