Tamaracks won thanks to Eli Sagor!

Yesterday was abuzz with the news that Eli Sagor from My Minnesota Woods.Org had indeed accomplished his mission.

"I knew that Tamaracks could win, but I didn't know the victory would be so sweet!" said Eli this morning, from an undisclosed location. See Eli's prized Tamarack from his backyard.

Investigators are looking into the legality of the online poll that KAXE conducted. "We think a certain E. Sagor had undue influence on at least 40% of the 42% of votes for Tamarack."

If you haven't yet voted, and Eli hasn't twisted your arm, please vote for your favorite MN tree.
