Having kept watch over recent months I can guarantee that there won't be a tie. If I was any more paranoid than I already am I would say that there are 1 or more people who delight in waiting until the end of the month before posting just so they can upset the people who think that they have a slam dunk on finally getting their choice finally through. I wouldn't have been so suspicious but when I saw 6 votes being given to the eventual winner on the day before the end of voting for the July poll (ie conducted in June for the July theme) - well you just can't but help to be suspicious.

Hence the reason I'd personally prefer not to post ongoing vote totals before the end, but when asked here a while ago, many people preferred knowing the vote counts before adding their own vote.
I prefer voting myself without possibly being influenced by how others have already voted.
