So how about a run off between #2 (straight line family member with most votes) and #3 (normal font)?

OK, so looking at family totals:
33  - the curvy family (9,10,11)
36  - #3 (normal font)
64  - straight line family

Again 36 and 64 aren't directly comparable since #3 was the only
representative for it's family (hence no one would vote for it as 1st
and 2nd best).

Some comments:
The "straight line" family: 29 votes
#3 (the "normal font" one): 21 votes

*but* everyone got two votes (right?).  If these published vote totals
represent both votes, then #3 was disadvantaged by having only one
representative of it's "family" there.  So odds are, if people had
only a choice between their favorite "straight line" logo and their
favorite #3 looking logo, that #3 would win.  This of course ignores
weighting first choices higher than second choices (which I don't see
stats on) and assumes that people voting from all the two other logo
families (cartoon & curvy) would break evenly.

There. clear as mud ;-)

There was no restriction on how many times one can vote. However, I don't
see any repeated names, though people could vote again with another name
;)

The original poll form is no longer up.... I thought I remember seeing
a 1st and 2nd choice on a single form, but perhaps that was one of
Mark's polls.

Anyway, my analysis was about the splitting of a vote... many
variations of one logo while only a single variation of another style.
 Doesn't make for a fair vote.

I can't say that I follow you and your assumptions, just let me know what
to
do next ;)
Whatever you like ;-)  I'll personally go with the community at large
in this look-n-feel business (that's why I didn't vote).
