Hey, remember last month when we told you all about that USA Today poll which sought to determine the best cheesesteak in the commonwealth of Pennsylvania?

And how, at the time, a cheesesteak joint in Pittsburgh was in the lead?

And how that was patently offensive enough to prompt a call to rally behind one of the local entrants in the poll?

Well, guess what: Luckily, Dalessandro’s Steaks & Hoagies on Henry Avenue in Roxborough has risen to the top of the 20-entrant poll. But with the polls closing at noon Monday – results to be revealed on Friday – now is not the time to coast to the finish line.

Please take a moment this morning to head on over and cast a vote in this very important poll. The future of America’s birthplace hangs in the balance. It's the right thing to do.
