There is absolutely NO WAY I am signing in to Facebook to vote.  Too many areas for computer infections and my votes are private -- I can promise you I will NEVER use Facebook for voting.  Silver

I agree about the Facebook voting. To make it worse, tonight, March 9, my mother and I both were unable to vote for Naima. We were able to vote for other contestants, but the number assigned to Naima would either ring busy or would reach some weird "talk/dating type? service"... it was weird. We tried for over 2 hours,  triple checking our dialing. We are very unhappy about this, as we vote for several contestants each week, and were unable to vote for Naima.

I can't even access Facebook to even vote due to some technical problems.  This is so unfair.  You can vote directly on the ABC site for Dancing With the Stars.  Why does this site feel the need to restrict voting to an outside site like Facebook?  I won't be votiing at all this year.  Was looking forward to voting online.  This is a farce.

WHY IS VOTING NOT OPEN AT 10:45 EST?

I am not sure how many thousands of votes got lost last week because people couldn't get in (I couldn't vote because of the Log In problem.)  It is so very important that when Ryan says,  "Vote Online" that people can actually do this.  I hope others didn't get discouraged because of last Wednwsday.  People who vote On Line may not actually post here.  Will the problem be corrected by Wednesday?
