Yikes, I just got through voting and noticed the ewoks are gaining. Now they're cute and all but I'd rather they didn't get close enough to pat us on the ass.

If it really is Star Wars day, then that may explain the vote surge.

Don't let 'em catch up--even if it is their day.
Come on all you fans out there--VOTE!

Okay, I figured it out.

The BBC News top stories in their RSS Feed include "Fans Mark 30 Years of Star Wars" which links to "Taking a walk on the Dark Side" which has a link to the BBC poll. Apparently, some Star Wars fans are reading the new article and following it to the poll. Thus the upsurge in votes.

Well, hopefully you are right, and it will quiet back down. Nice bit of deduction there.
