Vote at the 'Pick Pickler' phone bank
CTC Wireless offers free text voting in Albemarle

Although the City of Albemarle gathers every week to watch American Idol and local fan favorite, Kellie Pickler, this Tuesday night will be a little different.

CT Communications, Inc. has established a CTC Wireless "Pick Pickler" phone bank for FREE text-to- vote.

Immediately following the primetime show, when official voting starts, the CTC Wireless “Pick Pickler” phone bank begins. The voting stand will be located at the corner of First Street and West Main in front of JD Shuckers in Albemarle.

CT Communications, Inc. will have 40 wireless handsets, with text messaging feature for voting, available for supportive fans. CTC Wireless employees will be on hand to assist voters. CT Communications, Inc. will continue to offer free text voting each week while Kellie Pickler is a contestant.

At the town square, a mini concert begins at 6:30 p.m. and will showcase Albemarle Idol, Joy Almond, and runner-up Brooke Garcia. Restaurant doors open downtown at 8 p.m. for American Idol viewing.

CT Communications, Inc. is headquartered in Concord and is a growing provider of integrated telecommunications and related services to residential and business customers located primarily in North Carolina.

Awww jeeeezzzz...we created a 'monster'! ;-) From Yahoo:

Former 'American Idol' contestant Kevin Covais, of Levittown, N.Y., signs autographs fo the crowd at the NBC 'Today' television show after he performed in New York's Rockefeller Center, Thursday, March 30, 2006. The 16-year-old, nicknamed 'Chicken Little' for his resemblance to the cartoon character, was voted off the program one week ago.

FWIW, for the second time in a week, the local FOX station ran hit pieces about Pickler, both wondering if she's playing dumb. Both concluding yes.

This is the same station that has had nothing but praise for fellow North Carolinians, Chris and Bucky. And the same station that fell all over itself trumpeting Fantasia and Clay Aiken.

That's not a good sign for the Gherkin, IMO.
