1989 Worldcon Site Selection

Site Selection for the 1989 Worldcon was conducted by ConFederation, the 1986 Worldcon. (1989 was the first Worldcon to be selected three years in advance, so ConFederation ran site selection for both the 1988 Worldcon and the 1989 Worldcon.)

The only bidder on the ballot was Boston in '89 which won and went on to run Noreascon 3. (The New York in '89 bid did not file and so was not on the site selection ballot.)

Results:

Bidder	Mail	At-con	Total
Boston in '89	426	652	1078
No Preference	55	56	111
None of the Above	20	40	60

Total	509	767	1276
