Btw, I went everywhere around the internet but Elizabeth Cotten isn't eligible. Neapolisher, if you can find me a source that claims she's delta blues, I'll include your "vote."

Also, I will now look for a blues artist called I.C. Wiener.
Elizabeth Cotten's style is categorized under Peidmont Blues, as well as all my other nominations. So if you dare to disqualify her, then you have to disqualify the others who also play in the same style i.e. Blind Willie McTell and Mississippi John Hurt. But you can't disqualify them cause you already let the proverbial camel's nose into the tent when you said nothing earlier. You already let people nominate Piedmont Blues and Chicago Blues artists. So I don't see why you want to be a stickler all of a sudden. It's really not fair that you zero in on my nominations and disqualify them and turn a blind eye to all the other in-correctly nominated nominations.
