Vote for the Monroe County Preseason Offensive Player of the Year: How Voting Works & How to Win

What this Monroe County preseason vote is and who runs it

Behind the Monroe County Preseason Offensive Player of the Year sits a straightforward fan vote, one that recognizes a high school football offensive player in Monroe County, Pennsylvania, before the fall season begins. The organizer is listed simply as Monroe County, and the balloting runs on Crowdsignal, whose polling pages live under poll.fm addresses. This program's ballot sits at poll.fm/14242298, and that address is the authoritative home for both voting and results.

The vote is a preseason exercise rather than a postseason honor. The 2024 form presented offensive nominees grouped by position, including running backs, wide receivers, a fullback and a quarterback, drawn from high school programs across the county. Schools in the East Stroudsburg, Stroudsburg, Pleasant Valley and Pocono Mountain area appear on the nominee list, which makes the ballot a genuinely county-wide competition rather than a single-school promotion.

Unlike seasonal weekly honors, this ballot is a standing single question: who will be the county's top offensive player heading into the season. Supporters answer it with a click, and Crowdsignal publishes the running percentage beside each nominee while the window is open.

The dated facts, confirmed editions and voting window

Two editions of this ballot are confirmed: 2023 and 2024. That pair of years is what qualifies the program as annual, and it is the full extent of the published history. No edition after 2024 has been announced, and the organizer has not printed a next run date anywhere on the ballot page.

The 2024 voting window fell in August, which fits the preseason framing of the award. The poll is now closed. Its results page remains visible and shows the outcome: the leading nominee, a wide receiver from a Stroudsburg program, finished with 44 percent of 65,279 votes cast. That total, published by Crowdsignal on the closed form, is the only figure tied to this program's confirmed results.

Several facts go unpublished. Open and close dates for the window go unprinted; confirm on the live ballot each cycle. The organizer also publishes no written rules for the vote, no eligibility criteria, no per-supporter limit and no category roster, since the ballot is a single standing question rather than a multi-category readers' choice. Anyone planning around this poll should treat the August 2024 window as the anchor and check the live form when a new edition appears.

How a supporter votes on the ballot today

Voting asks little of anyone. A supporter opens poll.fm/14242298, reads the nominee list, picks a radio button beside the chosen offensive player and submits. Crowdsignal registers the choice immediately and updates the percentage shown beside each nominee, so the standings are visible while the window is open.

Because the 2024 edition is closed, a visitor landing on the address today sees the final results page rather than a live form. The closed page lists every nominee from the 2024 ballot with final percentages and totals, which is how supporters and families can check where a particular player finished. When a new edition opens, the same poll address returns to an active form, which is the pattern typical of Crowdsignal series.

No login, email address or account is required to participate on the ballot as published. The organizer has not printed any rules about repeated voting, daily returns or eligibility, so the practical guidance is to vote from the live form during the open window and watch the published tally. Supporters who want broader tactics for rallying votes on fan ballots can read how to get more votes online, which applies the same way to a county preseason poll as to a weekly honor.

How this ballot sits beside its Pennsylvania neighbours

Monroe County's preseason offensive vote occupies a narrower lane than most Pennsylvania fan ballots. It is scoped to a single county and to a single preseason question, while the state's better-known honors run statewide or on a weekly rhythm. Mr. PA Football, for example, recognizes top players across the whole state rather than within a county. The Pennsylvania High School Football Player of the Week and the PennLive Mid-Penn Boys Basketball Player of the Week both run as recurring weekly series during their seasons, refreshing the ballot every few days.

Other neighbours sit with established publishers. The Morning Call Athlete of the Week is tied to the Allentown newspaper, and the WICU Athlete of the Year belongs to an Erie television station. There is also a spring-side sibling in the Pennsylvania High School Softball Player of the Year.

What distinguishes the Monroe County ballot is its county identity and its preseason slot in August, giving Pocono Mountain area football followers a vote of their own before kickoff, on a Crowdsignal form that answers to no newspaper masthead.
