1969 HOF Ballot
March 24, 2010 at 02:13PM View BBCode
Go ahead and vote
Please vote for up to seven players.
Also, please note that stats/rankings of players are as of the time I put the ballot together. Also, please click on the player names for their player cards. The highlights under their names are what they are - highlights.
A player must be on 75% of the ballots submitted to be inducted into the HOF. Players who have gotten less than 25% of the vote for three consecutive years have been removed from the ballot.
As a guide, I included what % of the votes a player got in previous HOF ballots as well.
You will have until the last regular season game is played to vote.
Here are the added players from last season:
