For the 1993 voting we will continue our two tiered system. We begin with nominations. Please vote for 15 nominees from the lists below. However keep in mind that only a max of 5 of your votes can go to artists on the newly eligible list. This rule has been ignored occasionally but I believe it is important to do it this way. This year is a pretty good and deep slate of newly eligible. Keeping it to a max of 5 though assures that people don't ignore those artists that are still lined up to enter. And of course, you don't have to vote for any newly eligible if you don't want to. The list below is not inclusive, I have gotten rid of some names for the previous extremely long lists, but if you want to vote for somebody not on the list they are fair game as long as they aren't already inducted and debuted in 1967 or before (and after 1940). This round of voting will be open into Sunday February 12. Results will be final sometime mid afternoon that day. Whether you have voted in previous elections or not, you are more than welcome to join in the fun.

One reason is I mistakenly left The Temptations out when they were first eligible and didn't correct the error for 3 or 4 weeks. My bad for sure.
