Ballot Evidence

The original named image differs at No. 24. Its creator explicitly acknowledged a BYU vote in the original poll discussion. This edition retains the CPT choices, with the erroneous image and creator correction documented. This is a corrected secondary-source reconstruction, not a direct AP capture or a full author-list match.

• No. 24: BYU, correcting SMU in the original image.
