Congratulations! You've made your way to the LocaL Choice Awards!

The Categories are here and now it's your turn to tell everyone all about your favorite local artists, musicians, restaurants, venues and local leaders who truly shine in this city of ours. It's time to cast your votes for the 2020 LocaL Choice Awards! Remember to keep a local-only mindset while giving your responses. Don't let some chain restaurant win Favorite Margarita over a great locally owned joint. Vote for Columbus' homegrown establishments, local artists, and local musicians. Then get ready to party with us at the Award Show! January 26th. We'll celebrate the stars of our community and hand out trophies to our Top Most Voted for Category winners... all while raising money for a local charity.

Here are the rules:

1) You must hit the "vote" button at the end for your picks to count. If you feel like that's too much work, relax. You don't have to do it all at once; you have until midnight December 20th. Just don't wait until the last day - If you need to give yourself a deadline, make it Dec.15th. When you hit "vote"/submit.. it will tell you your "score" is zero. And that's okay, this isn't a test ;)

2) No ballot stuffing. Only one vote per reader. Submissions by ballot stuffers will be tossed out.

3) You don't have to answer every question. If you don't have a nominee you can think of, skip it.

4) Don't see your favorite on the list? That's okay! The line marked as "other" is for your write-in response/nomination.
