For Your Favorite Jersey Shore Love Story is WJLK-FM's December public vote, carried on the station's website and aimed at Jersey Shore couples on the verge of engagement. Unlike the business rankings around it, this Asbury Park, New Jersey ballot puts a $10,000 custom creation from Earth Treasures Fine Jewelers in Eatontown on the line, with judges cutting the field to the Top 25 before listeners vote.

Most of the New Jersey ballots covered on this site ask readers to rank businesses: dentists in Bergen and Morris counties, shops and restaurants in a county readers' choice, favorites across the whole state. For Your Favorite Jersey Shore Love Story breaks that pattern. WJLK-FM, a commercial radio station licensed to Asbury Park, New Jersey, uses its own website to put couples, not companies, on the ballot.
The premise is narrow and personal. Over the past 3 weeks the station asked romantic Jersey Shore residents on the verge of engagement why they should win a $10,000 custom creation from Earth Treasures Fine Jewelers in Eatontown. Impartial judges then took on the difficult task of narrowing the field to the Top 25 entries, and the station told readers the choice was hard because there were far too many beautiful stories and deserving couples. Public voting then decides which of those stories advances.
The ballot is hosted at 943thepoint.com, the broadcaster's own web address, under a vote-for-your-favorite-jersey-shore-love-story path, with no third-party voting platform involved. That matters for supporters: there is no separate contest platform to register with, only the station's page, and taking part is a plain public vote, open to whoever visits.

The ballot is an annual fixture by its history: editions are confirmed for every year from 2020 through 2026, with 2027 the next expected cycle. Each confirmed edition is anchored to December. In the cycle whose page text is on file, voting ended on Sunday, December 6th, and the top 10 vote-getters were set to move on to the next stage.
That closing date is the only day-and-month marker the ballot page carries. WJLK-FM has printed no opening date for the voting window, no list of ballot categories, no cap on repeat voting and no eligibility rule covering couples or voters, and no separate round dates exist for this market; confirm on the live ballot each cycle.
What the page does establish is the shape of a cycle. The 3-week entry phase came before voting in the cycle on file, so the program runs in phases: residents submit their stories, judges cut the field to the Top 25, and the public vote follows. How a final winner is chosen after the top 10 advance, whether by a further public round or a judge decision, the ballot page leaves unstated.
Supporting a couple is a short errand. Open the ballot page on 943thepoint.com, the station's own domain, and scroll the entries: each is a Jersey Shore love story from a couple on the verge of engagement, written in the couples' own words during the 3-week entry phase. Read the stories, pick the single entry that earns your vote, and cast it on the page itself.
Since WJLK-FM hosts the ballot itself instead of using a contest platform, no separate account needs creating and no other domain has to be trusted; the vote happens where the stories live. The page text asks readers simply to vote for their favorite, and the field at the voting stage is the Top 25 chosen by the station's judges.
Some practical notes. The vote is public and open, so a couple's whole circle can take part; nothing on the ballot page states a limit on repeat voting, and the station has published no such rule. Timing matters too: the December 6th closing in the cycle on file shows how short the window can be, so a supporter who waits for the final weekend may find voting already closed.
New Jersey is well covered by reader-voted programs, and this page's siblings show the range: the Asbury Park Press Readers' Choice, the Bergen & Morris Top Dentists list, the Best of Bergen Community's Choice Awards, the Best of Jersey Shore Contest, Best of New Jersey and the Jersey Bites Monmouth County Readers' Choice. Each of those is a business or service ranking, usually with many categories and a newspaper, county publisher or chamber behind it.
This program differs from each of them in the same ways. The organizer is a radio station, not a print publisher, so promotion runs through WJLK-FM's on-air and web audience rather than a newspaper readership. The ballot has a single theme and a single prize, the $10,000 custom creation, instead of a long category list. And the entrants are people with stories, not businesses with services, which changes what a vote means: you are backing a couple's engagement, not a shop's reputation.
What this means in practice for a supporter is focus. A broad shore-area ranking spreads effort across many categories, while this ballot concentrates everything on a single story. Readers who follow the station's other coverage, or any of the county readers' choices, will recognize the public-vote habit; this ballot just points it at romance.
Support on this ballot is earned story by story. The couples who wrote in spent 3 weeks making their case, and the judges' cut to the Top 25 means each finalist already has a written story a supporter can share. The most direct help is circulation: friends and family reading the entry on the station's page and voting for it there. The station has published no statement about outside voting help, paid or otherwise, so a couple planning anything beyond personal outreach should check the ballot's own terms first. Our votes guide covers honest ways to widen a fan base, and the legal position for paid votes in contests like this is laid out on our legality page. Whatever route a couple takes, the vote still has to land on the station's own ballot before the December close.
Go to the vote-for-your-favorite-jersey-shore-love-story page on 943thepoint.com, WJLK-FM's own site. No outside contest platform is involved, so the address you type is the station's domain and the ballot loads directly from there.
Scroll the entries written by Jersey Shore couples on the verge of engagement. Each finalist survived the station's judge cut to the Top 25, so every entry on the ballot is a complete story rather than a bare name.
Pick the couple whose story earns your vote and cast it on the page itself. Voting is open to everyone who visits, so no purchase and no registration step is described as part of taking part.
Vote inside the December window. In the cycle on file, voting ended on Sunday, December 6th, and the station has not printed an opening date, so checking the page early in the month is the safe habit.
After voting closes, the top 10 vote-getters move on to the next stage of the program. The ballot page does not describe what that stage involves, so follow the station's own coverage for the outcome.
