36 hours to go! We'd previously announced a deadline of 4 a.m. tomorrow for the end of voting in this year's Best of the Bay Readers' Poll, but figured who but robo-voters would be up at 4 a.m.? So now all you human beings have a chance, too — our biggest Readers' Poll ever closes officially once and for all at 11:59 p.m. Wed. Aug. 31.

That means you still have a chance to vote for your favorite restaurants, newsmakers, dog parks, head shops, bizarro local news stories and more. We've already alerted you to some of the close races and top vote-getters; so log in and be counted!

Plus, you can now get an amazing deal on our annual Best of the Bay Awards Show, The Loafies.
