Today is November 8, election day in America, and…

*Wait, have you voted yet? You haven’t? Dude, stop reading this immediately and go vote right now. Cool? Cool.*

While many of you are mainly concerned with who the next US President will be between Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump, inside the Capitals locker room there is a great debate about another (ceramic) neck-and-neck race.

The Capitals are hosting a vote for the next Capitals bobblehead between Braden Holtby’s holtbyism, Tom Wilson’s Wiiiiillllllsssssssooooon Halloween costume, and Justin Williams’ fro.

The players are divided. Some of the candidates aren’t even voting for themselves.

Braden Holtby

“I want you guys to vote for me, but I don’t know, I kind of want a Justin Williams Crazy Hair bobblehead.”

Tom Wilson

“I think I’d probably be the bobblehead because I’m younger, taller… can’t tell you I had better hair than Holts in his prime – but good hair. Willy also has good hair, but yeah, bigger, stronger, crazier.”

Justin Williams

“I mean Holtby, he wouldn’t be able to see past his beard so it’d be all hair. Tom, he’s just too good looking to be on a bobblehead. You can’t have that. So out of default you have to vote for me. I’ll vote for this guy.”

[Proudly points both thumbs at himself.]

Dmitry Orlov

“I vote for Braden Holtby.”

Jay Beagle

“If I could elect someone, it would be Tom Wilson because he’d beat me up if I didn’t. Vote for Tom Wilson.”

Andre Burakovsky

“I think I’m kinda tired to just see Tom’s face all the time. He’s my new neighbor so I don’t have to see that everywhere. I vote for Justin Williams.”
