America's CTO: We have a winner
In one of the tightest contests ever seen in a Reg poll, columnist and software developer Ted Dziuba has emerged as the people's choice to be Barack Obama's "Chief Technology Officer".

Thank You, Everyone
I would just like to thank everyone who didn't vote for me for not voting for me. I am very busy at the moment and the additional responsibilities would have been onerous.
Paris, because she didn't vote for me (I know this for a fact because no one voted for me).
amanfromMars for UK CTO
as 'he' talks a lot more sense than Gordo/Darling or the other UK spin docs
amanfrommars for CTO!
He would talk less crap than most politicians.

And yeh. I'd vote for amfM any day of the week!

It's Steven.
Not Steve.
Steven.
I'll let you off this time, you strangely surnamed* journo type, you. Cheers for the published quote tho.
Kudos to whomever voted for ammfM - he's a True maN 42 of the technical conservative People!!!111!1one

*yes, I realise the irony there...
Five write-in votes?
Your pie chart shows... 1+1+2+2... more than five.
+1 _4_ A Man From Mars
because PoliticianS Speak wiTh Forked tongUes
I still think it should be Dick Cheney
Maybe he could figure out a way to power teh internets by burning lawyer carcasses. I know several lawyers I'd like him to take on a short hunting trip.
Unfortunately...
Mentioning no names,but a certain Martian readed voted for all five candidates at once.
That just shows how far Martians are ahead of us, I guess.
