I think Matt tweeted something about coming to AK and there was a photo of Kris showing him a poster with the correct AR abbreviation. I can't get to it now but if you check the archives around July 25 you will find the photo and discussion... guys, MJ KNOWS the abbreviation for Arkansas is AR – this is just a little inside joke from the tour over the summer.

Too bad I have a life. But I think that I will have to fly to NY, even though I live in LA; just give me a date. Frankly, I want to see Matt included in this concert. Matt and Adam are the best live performers. And even though I think Kris is a hoot and a fine musician, I really only want to see him performing live in a duet with Allison or Adam. Kris is funny; he'd be a great mc and occasional musician. But give me Matt, Adam and my girl Allison, and I'm happy. I’m a little late to the party, huh? Too bad I have a life.

"Bring Adam Lambert, Kris Allen, and Allison Iraheta To <strong>Your City</strong>." I think it's kind of a shame that people (apparently, Adam fans?) "organized" to get votes for NYC, just because it's not Little Rock. That goes against the spirit of the contest completely. At least the people who wanted the concert to be in Little Rock were (mostly) from Arkansas. That was the point of the contest, wasn't it? To try to bring the idols to your own city? Not "a neutral city."

Mof he said that it could be LR (He really got a warm welcome there while on AI tour) He also said "Why not LA?, It's Where I'm From". Can't wait to see Adam he loves NY and visa versa.

Evidently, only one vote per ip address was allowed. So I guess some people wasted their time.

In checking a record of posted tweets, all three tweeted about the voting for the concert. I cannot say about any other verbal/interview promotions they did on the concert but with tweets it was pretty much the same number. So all three personally contibuted to the promotion through tweets. Of course I am not counting anything family member may have done (Allen family) Allison did 3 generic tweets Nov 24, Dec 11 and Dec 15, Kris tweeted Nov 24 and Dec 15 (with the whisper about Little Rock) Adam tweeted Nov 27 and Dec 17 (with a plug for NYC - to get the competiton firing up --as implied by you sleepinggiant) sleepinggiant and TwigLA

Then some folks started thinking LR might actually win and Momma Allen and Jim C tweeted about it. I think Kris has been far to busy to actively promote anything but his album. I do think New York is the best location, I was just defending Arkansas earlier. MJ has deleted a lot of the very ugly posts about LR but they weren't very nice. As far as voting for NY if you lived elsewhere, the rules didn't say you had to vote for your own hometown. I think it's fine that people voted for NY no matter where they are from. Perhaps the advertisement is a mistake - maybe they mean't PM? Sunday morning is ridiculous!

I think Ryan Seacrest and KISS owe him a huge thank you. So from what I’m reading here, Kris is the only one of the three that actively promoted this concert?

Kris was the most actively engaged Idol in leading the charge with his [and his mom's] very active campaign for Little Rock.

uh, isn’t that their hometown? I believe Kris wrote something about LR about 5 days ago.

As I recall Glamberts were already voting for NYC two weeks ago because of their fanwar.
