Gammons has partnered on a "Hot Stove, Cool Music" event every year to raise funds for charity. Arroyo is a musician and has been a part of the event for about 20 years.

Maybe if there are good stories behind them, the "threw them a vote" situations are OK, since so many voters never vote for their full allotment.
