Center City has the country’s oldest reporters club, the Pen and Pencil, and for the second year it’s hosting the Philadelphia News Awards.
Voting is online and anyone can participate — not just members. This might not always be a thing to share here, but some familiar faces have found their way onto the ballot, and, no, we’re not talking about our own lead reporter Juliana Reyes — whom you should definitely support as Community Reporter of the Year.
Check out the Civic Hacker of the Year category.
Vote by Nov. 30- James Tyack, Unlock Philly
- Rob Kandel, formerly of the Inquirer
- Jim Smiley, Philadelphia Construction Permits by Neighborhood. (Full disclosure: Smiley is our contributing web editor, so, yes, we’re pulling for him.)
- Kathryn Killebrew, Cycle Philly
- Casey Thomas, various, including this NewsWorks crime data feature
