    I am looking for a specific type of voting plugin, or possibly even a theme. I don't just want have a poll where people vote. Instead I wish to have a place where people can submit their business, and have friends/family vote for their business. Essentially we wish to reward the top business in each area based on how many votes they can get from their clients, friends, family etc.

    I have been searching for a bit and will continue to look. Let me know if you know of anything!

    ZyreX - Thank you for your answer. Something like that may work. I am looking to just have companies enter their name and then have a vote function for each one. That theme looks like it would treat each one as a post. I could probably make it work if I can't find anything else.

    Well you can try and adapt it for you own needs:
    - Title -> Company name
    - Body -> Company Description
    - Change button "Submit article" to -> "Submit your Company"

    Or you can try and implement this one: wordpress.org/plugins/buddypress-links/

    Thanks ZyreX. I will check into that and try to find the best option. It's a pretty complicated system I am trying to make. I would enter the companies myself, but we have over 8,000 customers...so waaaayyy too much data entry for me!
