Readers' Choice MyCentralJersey Girls Wrestler of the Year: How Voting Works & How to Win

What is the Readers' Choice girls wrestler poll and who runs it?

The Readers' Choice MyCentralJersey Girls Wrestler of the Year is a reader poll for girls wrestling in New Jersey. Crowdsignal, the platform behind poll.fm, hosts the ballot, and the poll asks readers to choose the girls wrestler they think should win the year's honor.

MyCentralJersey.com runs the poll. The site is part of the Home News Tribune and Courier News group in the USA TODAY Network New Jersey, and the poll's title carries the MyCentralJersey name. A reader searching for the contest by its title will find the same ballot under the organizer's name and on the poll.fm page.

The poll is a fan vote, not a panel decision, and the poll page presents the nominees as answer options that readers pick from. The page does not state a judging panel, so the public vote is the only mechanism it shows.

Quick facts

What are the dated facts for the 2025 and 2026 ballots?

Confirmed ballots are 2025 and 2026, and both fall in March. The 2026 poll page carries the title pattern of the series and is marked Poll Closed, so the most recent ballot is no longer taking votes. The 2025 ballot is an earlier poll in the same series, and the organizer's ballots follow the same pattern from year to year.

The page gives month-level timing only. Both ballots open and close in March, and the poll pages give no day-level dates, so a reader cannot pin the exact opening or closing day from the page itself.

Ballot timeline

The next ballot's start date has not been published on the poll page, and the organizer has not listed the 2027 window. The day-level window for the next ballot is unknown; confirm on the live ballot each cycle.

The poll page does not describe the number of nominees per year or whether the ballot runs in more than one group.

How does a reader vote in the poll today?

Voting happens on the Crowdsignal poll page. The poll lists its answer options, which are the nominees, and a reader chooses the nominee they support and submits that pick. The page does not say whether a reader may choose more than one answer, so the rule should be read on the live poll.

The page describes the list of answers but does not spell out the exact submit control or the tallying rules, so the reader should follow the on-page prompts when the ballot is open. The 2026 ballot is marked Poll Closed, which means it is not the place to vote today.

Voting on the poll page

The poll does not publish a vote cap in the material this page relies on, so the reader should look for the rule on the live poll before voting more than once.

How does this poll sit beside other New Jersey readers' choice ballots?

This poll is a girls wrestling ballot, which sets it apart from the best-of ballots that sit beside it in New Jersey. Its subject is a wrestler-of-the-year pick, while the neighbouring contests name a different subject in their titles, such as dentists, the shore or the state as a whole.

Readers who want a reader vote from another newsroom can compare the Asbury Park Press Readers' Choice ballot. Readers in the Bergen area can compare the Best of Bergen Community's Choice Awards, and the Bergen and Morris Top Dentists ballot covers a dental subject instead.

For a statewide best-of view, the Best of New Jersey contest is the wider reader vote, and the Best of Jersey Shore Contest covers the shore. The Jersey Bites Monmouth County Readers' Choice ballot is the Monmouth County reader vote.

How can a reader help a nominee in this poll?

Helping a nominee in a reader poll starts with the organizer's rules. The poll page describes the answer list and the ballot, but it does not describe outside help, so the safest reading is that any outside tool is something the organizer may or may not accept. Read the rules on the live poll before using one.

The most direct step is to share the poll.fm link with New Jersey readers who follow girls wrestling and ask them to vote during the March ballot. Local supporters of a nominee's school or town are the audience most likely to act on the link, and they can read the nominee list for themselves before submitting a pick.
