Cause the voting period isn't by calendar year...it's in 18 month
increments...meaning that a record released in September of 2002 could
potentially have been nominated depending on how well the record did over
the course of those 18 months. It's to help acts and labels who release
recordings at the end of a fiscal year get noticed in the year in which it
would have had its strongest momentum -- in the case of both examples cited
here, 2003.
