In the case of the "other" thread, it was not just because of new voters but because what looked like a pattern of voting from new and possibly 'fake' accounts to the extent that it could have affected the final placings.
I mean exactly that. Just calculate the polls excluding the votes from accounts created after July 21st and check how this affects the result. I would hope/assume that most results will not be affected...

Any results change that doesn't affect the winner will probably not be a big issue - it won't hurt much more than the ego. If the winner changes then we will have a whole different discussion and the only solution may be to run the poll again.

This is a community and most things are decided by vote/majority so depending on how different the new results are I think we can give a chance for the contestants on each category "agree/validate/confirm" it by voting and be done with.
