Time to vote for X-Mormon of the Year 2016!!

chanson, December 29, 2016December 30, 2016

Here’s where you can vote on which X-Mormon made the biggest splash in 2016:


** Note: nominations for the 2016 Brodie Awards are open **

Introducing this year’s nominees:

Jeremy Runnells: Author of the CES Letter, he excommunicated the church after being called in for church discipline in 2016.
Erin Robertson: She won the 15th season of Project Runway (2016) and self-identified as Ex-Mormon on national television in the process.
Mark Naugle (chubs_gato): A lawyer who has processed thousands of resignations from the CoJCoL-dS (pro bono) over the past few years.
Rebecca Musser: She escaped from the FLDS and testified against FLDS prophet Warren Jeffs a total of 20 times and helped prosecutors to win 11 convictions against him.
Carolyn Jessop: She escaped from the FLDS, testified against them, and won custody of her children.
Elissa Wall: She escaped from the FLDS and helped expose their abuse by writing a book about her forced marriage/rape.
Ryan McKnight (fearless_fixxer): He has worked with multiple LDS leakers, setting up a Mormon wikileaks in 2016.
Clay Christensen: Professor and author, he was called in for church discipline and resigned from the CoJCoL-dS in 2016 (I think — please comment if this information is not correct)
Mike Norton (NewNameNoah): He has continuously exposed the LDS temple ceremonies on YouTube, including some newly-leaked/produced material in 2016.
Tyler Glenn: A rock star who painted an X across his face and revealed LDS temple tokens in a popular music video.

If I have made any errors, please leave a comment so I can make the correction.

The poll will remain open until Thursday, January 12, at 8:00 am Switzerland-time. May the most awesome X-Mo win!

    @Jennifer — lol, that’s a funny mistake. I had been spelling it right earlier, but so many people on the nominations threads spelled it with one “L” that I thought I must have gotten it wrong. So I erroneously “corrected” it this time. 😉

    I’ll fix it right in my post, but I’m not sure I can edit the poll without messing it up.
