Hugo Breakdown

Here is the voting breakdown for the Best Dramatic Presentation, Short Form. The Doctor Who two parter, The Empty Child and The Doctor Dances wins.

It is also a great example of the way the Hugo voting is calculated -- I saw some comments from people unfamiliar with the voting procedures were concerned that having three Doctor Who episodes against each other would mean that they would compete against each other and something else would win. And if they had only looked at first place ballots, that would have been the case. But they consider the full ranking of people's ballots, so there didn't have to be any conspiracy about deciding which of the three Doctor Who episode was best before voting amongst all of the people that top three picks were Who episodes.
