SPAC Mafia!
Congratulations to the winner!
The contest winner, who also wishes to remain anonymous (we hear ya), received a total of 180 votes out of 360 total, or exactly 50%.

Oddly, the results for each were a little different and were as follows:
POLL AT BOTTOM OF POSTS
Ask me my “Special Purpose”: 48 votes (17.8%)
SPACs Illustrated: 12 votes (4.4%)
SPAC Mafia: 156 votes (57.8%)
SPAC Addict: 54 votes (20.0%)
POLL IN SIDEBAR
Ask me my “Special Purpose”: 48 votes (53.3%)
SPACs Illustrated: 6 votes (6.7%)
SPAC Mafia: 24 votes (26.7%)
SPAC Addict: 12 votes (13.3%)
