O.C. Taking Votes On License Plate Design OCEAN CITY, MD (wesm) - (AP) The big vote underway in Ocean City has nothing to do with picking the president or the next American Idol.

Tourism officials are offering Internet users the chance to vote online for one of three designs for a new specialty Maryland license plate honoring the resort.

Town spokeswoman Donna Abbott says resort officials chose not to design a new resort logo for the license plate. Instead, the three contenders are established logos: a wave logo from the official town flag, an "OC" logo currently used by the tourism office and a 1970s-era logo from the Inlet water tower.

The voting ends Oct. 10. The winning design will require town council approval.
