If more people would participate we wouldn't have that problem.

A two-way tie, such as this one is OK, but any more than that is too much. I gave everyone the ability to change their vote in these polls so if anyone want to change their vote to break a tie they can. I will go through all of them before the final tallies and change mine in such situations if I am not adamant about my original choice.

I begin to wonder if these polls are generally a bit broad. Few of them have been contests between just a couple of winners, making the votes spread across everyone and no real definitive choice emerges.

Some tough choices here. My vote goes to Meryl Streep for Sophie's Choice, not The French Lieutenant's Woman.
