The vote count will increase when you vote, so you will know. Votes from all the nominations are consolidated, so the total count shows.

Is there some kind of way that the site lets you know that it worked? (a pop up message?)
The page re-loads and displays the message:
Thank you!
Your vote can help the cause you care about win $2,000: share with your friends on Facebook to help it get more votes!
In light green text, underneath the karma man graphic.

You should not need to register; just vote. The Event page on FB (for voting reminder) says to look for Helen Watkinson's entry (it is the first one, so on page 2 now) and vote that one.

If you are having trouble, try a different browser (or upgrade your browser, if applicable). Though there was one day several people had troubles, so the system might be glitchy.

Really, Ooops again, didn't want to think I was voting for nothing. So why was I seeing 2 different numbers when voting?
