However the Dodgers/ Angels have joined together to try to get out the vote for the respective "Los Angeles" candidates

The first "alliance" of this year's Final Vote was also revealed on Monday, when the Angels and Dodgers agreed to back each other's Los Angeles-market candidate. So the Angels are asking fans not only to vote for Figgins, but also for Kemp. And vice-versa with the Dodgers.

According to the Dodgers, Kemp was third place as of yesterday. Of course, no totals were released.

I did my part

Except I didn’t vote for Figgins too. I voted for Kemp and Inge—- and I only voted once.

I don’t know if I found a glitch, but last night it allowed me to keep voting for over an hour and a half. Kemp, you’ve gotten over 200 votes from me, and I’m going for more tonight!

Sounds like Kemp is 4th

"At the 48-hour mark, Sandoval and Kinsler have each re-gained those leads with balloting ahead of last year’s record pace as 22.2 million votes have been cast exclusively on MLB.com and the individual Club sites. While Sandoval and Victorino swapped the top spot on the ballot last night, Mark Reynolds of the Arizona Diamondbacks and Matt Kemp of the Los Angeles Dodgers each have garnered nearly two million votes and are looming in this very close race for the final roster spot on the 2009 National League All-Star Team. They are followed by Cristian Guzman of the Washington Nationals."
