"It brings up an interesting point. There are around 850 voters (i happen to be one). If the score of LIGHTNING THIEF was the sole nominee for best score, let's say it got 60 votes - or even 200 votes - out of 850 voters who saw the show. Would it win the Tony when 650 voters chose not to vote. An interesting question."
Actually, it is not interesting at all because there is no such question. There is no provision for cancelling a result based on a minimum number of votes and it is fairly common that some people do not vote in all categories. I have a friend who frequently does not vote in design categories and another who generally absents himself from the musical categories for lack of interest. As noted in the other post, the gatekeeper is the nom committee. (fwiw i can't imagine them nominating play scores but not the musical score but we shall see.) |
