I wanted to thank everybody who voted in the poll. This is the first time I've ever done a poll on this blog. I think it was a smashing success.
And the winner is!?!
Of course, Dean Martin! Dean Martin had 68 votes. I was thinking that he probably would win this poll, but I actually thought it might be closer than it turned out to be. Wow. That is so awesome. It definitely shows he's the King of Cool.
Frank Sinatra came in second place with 26 votes.
Sammy Davis Jr. came in third with 17 votes.
Joey Bishop and Peter Lawford rounded out the list. I hate to admit it, but I wasn't sure if anybody at all would vote for either one of them.
Peter Lawford had only two votes.
Poor Joey Bishop came in last place. He had only one vote.
The results were in the order that I thought they might end up in. I figured Dino and Frank would take the top two spots. I did think it would be more neck and neck than it was. Dino blew away the competition. I was pretty much Sammy would be in third place. It doesn't surprise me that Joey and Peter barely even registered in this poll.
Thanks again for voting. I really appreciate it.

Wow, I didn't expect Dean Martin to trounce Frank! Admittedly, Frank Sinatra's my favorite so I'm a little biased ;)
Hey Kate. I wasn't sure how it would go. I thought Dean might pull it off, but I figured it would be neck and neck.
Better luck next time Frankie... I was rooting for you.
Hey Leah. Sorry about Frankie.
i expect the same result. : )
Frank Sinatra is the best
Ah yes, I voted for Dean.;))
But now looking at the picture of Peter Lawford, I have to say he is indeed a handsome man. I guess the disadvantage he has, at least in my case, is that I know very little about him.
They are all cool gentlemen though.;)) I wish more of those were still around today.;)
As the man said, "That's life!"
I really wasn't sure who was going to come out victorious amongst Frank and Dean. I wouldn't have been surprised with either fellow taking top honours. Both, and all their fellow Rat Pack members, are definitely winners in my books :)
Have a fantastic Wednesday, Keith!

I feel right bad for Peter and Joey.
That poll was so fun! And I decided not to pity vote Lawford, I went for Sinatra! lol
Hey Savvy. Thanks.
Hey Choo. I do like Sinatra
Hey Protege. Thanks. I voted for Dean. I like all the guys. I think what does hurt Peter and Joey both is that a lot of people don't know them that well. You see things all the time about Dean, Frank & Sammy. The other guys had movies, tv shows, you name it. They just seemed to be more in the background I guess.
Hey Bruce. That's become my favorite thing to say recently.
Hey Jessica. Thanks. I wasn't totally sure Dino would pull it off when I started this poll. Sinatra is hugely popular. I did think it might win it. As the poll started I got much more confidant. I love all these guys.
Hey Phoebe. Me too.
Hey Maggi. I don't know if somebody gave Peter and Joey pity votes or if those are really their favorites.
Being the cool guy that he is, Dino will celebrate his win by buying a round or two for the rat pack. :)
That pic of Bishop looks like he already knew he'd come in last place and he's merely accepting it lol.
My man came in third.
I must admit I voted for Frank
ou, my dear Frank Sinatra..second place? it's not fair but doesn't matter, for me he's on first place *.^
kisses
Hey Drake. You know what. You are so right about that. I wish I could hang out with those guys and have some drinks.
Hey JFK. LOL So true. It was hard to find a pic of him or Peter. Joey always looks that way.
Hey pallie, likes you didn't expect our Dino to win by a landslide......gotta have more faith in our Dino...after all never was, never will be anyone as cool as the King of Cool...oh, to return to the days when Dino walked the earth....long live our Master of Hip, our King of Cool, our Ruler of Randy....
Hey Dave. Nothing wrong with that. I like Frank.
Hey Wolf. Sammy would have been my next vote.
Hey Sonia. Thanks for voting. Sinatra is awesome whether he came in second in this poll or not.
Hey pallie. I was hoping that people would see it that way, but you can never tell with others. It didn't take long for me to realize that Dino was going to win by a huge margin.
I honestly thought Old Blue Eyes would win! :)
J'adore Dean! :-)
X♥X♥
Hey Erika. I thought it was going to be tight.
Thanks Janet.
Oh man I feel so bad for Joey Bishop!
Hey E.K. I do too.
i wanted frank to win!! *crying!*
just 26 votes?!! nooooooo.
Hey Wana. I was surprised that there was such a huge gap between Dean and Frank on this poll.
Fabulous post and pics! The poll was fun!

Thanks Carrie. I had a lot of fun with this one.
All men here are incredible cool! Congratulations for them all and for everyone who voted!
Many kisses Keith!
You are fab!
Awesome poll Keith! I very much agree with the results also... Dino was my fave too. I think partly because of his films with Jerry. I loved those films when I was little girl.♥
Good thing your blog is named the Dino Lounge :)
He is pretty fabulous. My picks came 2nd and 3rd so that's OK :)
thats a tough poll, i'm glad i didn't vote i wouldn't have been able to choose. but congrats to dean. haha
Of course it had to be Dean Martin lol :o]
i think it would be hilarious if you interviewed the guy (or chick) that voted for joey bishop and asked for an explanation! hahahahah
Cool! I wish Sammy had won though! This was fun. I want you do to another poll! Maybe with Bond Girls?
sinatra and dean martin, my absolute favourites! hope you're having a good day love!
xxoo

Hey Kira. Thanks. I think you're fab too. I love all of these guys. They are all cool cats to me. Cheers!
Hey Gabbi. Thanks. I'm glad you enjoyed the poll and its result. My first intro to Dino was basically through his movies with Jerry. I always loved those movies. Cheers!
Hey Ela. Yeah, I know what you mean. I did vote for Dino. Sammy is my second favorite member of the gang. Cheers!
Hey Niki. Thanks for commenting. That's okay that you didn't vote. It can be hard to decide.
Hey Terence. No doubt about that. :-)
Hey Droll. LOL Good idea. I wonder if the person will actually admit they voted for Joey. Plus I wonder who the 2 votes for Peter came from.
Hey Clare. Thanks. I enjoyed this poll. Sammy is my second favorite of these cool cats. My sis wants me to do a poll to pick everybody's favorite Bond. That's next up. I may have to do one on Bond girls. Good idea.
Hey Eden. Thanks. Dean and Frank are both such cool cats. I'm doing well. Hope you are too. Cheers!
Yaaay! This poll was way cool!
Can't wait to see your next one.
Have a great afternoon.
oh my fave is sinatra, they were all so inspiring!
