Here's how the Hottest Editors Competition 2011 is going to go down today: Round 1 polls close at 11 a.m. ET—that means you have a scant 2.5 hours left to get your vote in (or rally your friends to vote) for your favorite editors in our first elimination. If you haven't voted yet, GO HERE to vote. At time of publication, frontrunners to win their heats are: Rajni Jacques, Kate Lanphear, Mary Kate Steinmiller, Alexander Liang, David Thielebeule, and Shiona Turini. But wait, not all hope is lost because the votes are really close, which means anything can happen in the next two hours. [The Mgmt]
