Attention, Oscar Voters: Deadline To Cast Ballot Is 5 P.M. PT Today – For Real; Academy Announces Nominations Plan For January 23

deadline.com:

Okay Academy Members, time is up, extensions are almost over, and this is your last warning to cast your Oscar nomination ballot before the final deadline at 5:00pm pt today, Friday January 17.

Due to the LA Wildfire tragedy, the voting window has been extended twice. Originally the deadline was Sunday January 12, and then was moved to Tuesday January 14, and finally moved to today.

In casual conversations I have found voters who took advantage of those extensions, and may still be waiting to vote before 5pm today, or in all the confusion and concern over the fires have simply other things on their minds.

With other voting groups like BAFTA, PGA, WGA, ASC ultimately announcing their nominations this week it became apparent there would be no more delays.
