More than 300 businesses were nominated in each of the network's 37 major markets. Voting for the 2006 campaign was open through February 15, 2006.

AOL CityGuide, the leading online local entertainment guide, and its annual City's Best program provides an opportunity for local residents to vote for their favorite venues in their hometown, as well as cities they enjoy visiting.

"AOL CityGuide provides the opportunity for the preferences of our users to determine the winners of the campaign and let us know the establishments they deem best in their city."

All City's Best establishments are nominated based on recommendations from AOL CityGuide's local correspondents who live and work in the cities they cover, the editorial insights of the CityGuide programming team and user feedback. Consumers' votes and rankings ultimately determine which venues are chosen #1 in their categories during the next four months leading up to the announcement of the 2006 winners.
