BASED upon past releases 1,000 chips should more than satisfy the demand on the release date. We usually only go through a few hundred chips. We will put 500 chips at each table. You should be able to satisfy your demand at one table (yes, you can buy multiple chips - probably 20, depending on 'voter' turnout). We will then simply count the chips that are remaining and declare our winner.
I KNOW THIS IS NOT A VERY SCIENTIFIC POLL BUT WE ARE JUST TRYING TO HAVE A LITTLE FUN WITH IT.
