There was uproar today at the Americymru command bunker amidst allegations of massive vote-rigging in the Clown of the Month Competition. The leading contestant in the poll was disqualified after evidence of duplicate voting on a massive scale was unearthed."Some people will go to any lengths to win this prestigious award", said Dai Twaddle , the Americymru Humor Supremo. "Obviously the prospect of winning first prize brings out the worst in people." The first prize is:- " A tacky photoshop job on your profile pic portraying you with a clowns hat, false beard and glasses"The contestant at the center of the vote-rigging storm, who shall remain nameless ( Gareth Williams ) responded to the allegations this morning by saying:- " I won it fair and square...there's nothing in the rules against cheating".Amidst demands for a recount and comparisons with another famous electoral controversy in 2000, runner-up Linda Hall was declared the first "Americymru Clown of the Month". She will be rewarded in due course with the aforementioned tacky photoshop job and with a free ad for her website in our new classified ads page launching this weekend.
