All second-round polls have now been posted. We'll let the currently open polls finish up over the next week and once that's done, we'll have our Elite Eight.



Round Three, which will determine our Final Four, will debut on December 17.

The second round is now complete. The New York Post had jumped to an early lead after the first round, with seven of the sixteen covers, to six from the Daily News and three from last year's champion, Newsday. Now that we're down to eight covers, things have shifted a bit. The News has four covers to two each from the Post and Newsday.



Voting for the third round will begin tomorrow, Thursday, December 17.

We're now down to the final round. The New York Post, which started strong in the first round has now been eliminated from the competition. The Post has never won the Tabloid Cover Derby. The final round pits a Daily News cover against one from Newsday, which is looking for its second straight title after the Daily News won in each of the first four years.
