Don’t miss your chance to vote for best in biz

Everyone has their favorite local people, places and products. Just try asking someone, “Who is the best dentist around here?” or “Who would you recommend for an oil change?” or “So where can I get the best chicken fingers in Franklin County?” You’re sure to get an opinion or two.

Now, you can let your opinion be known and help your local favorites get the acknowledgement they deserve.

The Franklin County Times’ Best of the Best Reader’s Choice Poll 2022 is going on now, so don’t miss your chance to vote.

Now through April 25, readers have the opportunity to vote for their favorite local businesses – with more than 150 categories, including service providers, restaurants, retail locations, service professionals and more.

We launched the contest in 2021, and it returns for the second year this year, with the ballot located on pages A4-5 of the paper as well as on our website.

The ballot will continue to be printed on A4-5 each week, and available online at www.franklincountytimes.com, for the duration of the competition.

In case you haven’t heard, the rules are simple:

  • One entry per person will be counted.
  • To be counted, entries must be received by 5 p.m. April 25, completed either online or on the original newsprint form. No photocopied entries are allowed.  
  • Winners will be determined by reader votes and will be announced in a special section printed in the Franklin County Times June 15.  
  • Entries that have a minimum of 25 categories filled out will be entered into a drawing for a $150 cash prize. Entries that are incomplete or do not have complete contact information will not be eligible.  
  • No purchase is necessary to win the cash prize.  
  • Selections should include only local businesses. 

Ballots can be mailed to Franklin County Times Best of Contest, P.O. Box 1088, Russellville, AL 35653. Remember, they must be postmarked, hand delivered or completed online by 5 p.m. April 25.
