Congratulations Val Smith, Winner of "Super Poll 2008"

URBANDALE, Iowa – February 7, 2008 – Congratulations to Val Smith II, Des Moines, winner of the 2008 Super Poll sponsored by Trilix Marketing Group, 1460 KXnO and 100.3 The Bus.

Smith heard about the contest through the KXnO Web site. He registered for the Super Poll and began taking the Daily Top 5 Polls.

“I didn’t think I’d actually win,” says Smith. “I decided that if I did, I would choose a prize that would benefit my wife.” He decided upon the $500 gift card to Jordan Creek Town Center so his wife, Elizabeth, could buy some new clothes.

Smith was named as the winner Thursday morning on KXnO and he was quick to call in once he heard his name. “My wife was already at work when the winner was announced, so I called to tell her the good news. Of course she was excited,” says Smith. “She really deserves this.”

The other prizes from which Smith could have chosen included:

• $500 in cash
• an Apple gift card
• a gift card to the Spa at West Glen
• a Nintendo Wii package
• a new television
  

There was a great turnout for participation this year. “There were nearly 1,500 submissions overall in the daily polls. Over 700 people were registered for the Super Poll with 484 participating,” says Todd Senne, president, Trilix Marketing Group. “That is a 76 percent increase from last year.”

The favorite Super Bowl® commercial among Super Poll voters was Budweiser - “Hank” with 24 percent, followed by:

• Bud Light featuring "Jackie Moon"
• e*Trade – "Baby Hires Clown"
• e*Trade – "Baby Spits Up"
• Tide – "Stain"

“This year’s Super Poll was a huge success. We’ve enjoyed partnering with KXnO and The Bus and look forward to doing this again next year,” said Senne.
