This is the award everyone waits for and will likely close the CMA Awards tomorrow night. Can you imagine what it must be like to stand on that stage being nominated for such an honor?

The stories behind the nominees are pretty incredible. George Strait is defending his Entertainer of the Year crown after coming off the road for the first time in over 30 years. Miranda Lambert has risen from Nashville Star to stand beside her husband, Blake Shelton.  Blake and  Keith Urban became the face of country music for millions of new fans through the popularity of their TV shows. The final name on the list, Luke Bryan, is only one of the hottest stars in country music history. I think Luke takes this home tonight. Vote for your pick below.

You can also still vote for Male Vocalist of the YearFemale Vocalist of the YearMusic Video of the YearVocal Group of the YearNew Artist of the Year and Song of the Year. We'll post our scorecard on the awards and the show tomorrow.
