The votes are in, and it looks as if Maggie Simpson has won by a pacifier.
Yes, Maggie Simpson, a cartoon character of few words other than the suck-suck-sucking of her pacifier now has something to shout about.
The youngest member of the Fox television hit series, The Simpsons, beat her dad, Homer, by more than 8,000 ballots as the favorite Simpsons stamp in an online vote that took place at www.usps.com between April 7 and May 14.
"D'oh!" you can almost hear Homer say.
Of the more than 916,000 votes cast, Bart came in third, followed by Marge and Lisa.
The Simpsons stamps were issued nationwide May 7 and dedicated at the Twentieth Century Fox Studios in Los Angeles where The Simpsons creator and Executive Producer, Matt Groening, and Executive Producer, James L. Brooks, were joined by other members of the iconic television series.
The winner of 24 Emmy Awards and a Peabody Award, the longest-running primetime comedy in television history is also celebrating its 20th Anniversary throughout 2009.
