Your People’s Choice Winner Is...
Thank you all for taking time to vote and share the love with your favorite People’s Choice teams. Our semi-finalists and finalists received international press coverage, and took social media by storm! We’re proud of all of the clever ways each team reached out to friends, colleagues, and neighbors — even door-to-door get-out-the-vote campaigns. You amaze us!
We discovered some creative attempts to overcome the limit of one vote per day for each project [this is a hackathon, after all]. We’ve worked hard to validate every human vote to ensure that your voice was heard.
With all the votes now counted:
Mars Hopper is your 2016 People’s Choice Award Winner!
Please give a virtual round of applause to Mars Hopper, along with all the teams in the Top 25.
