Final ballot (with votes and %'s). Bagwell, Raines and Rodriguez will be inducted next summer:

381 Jeff Bagwell 86.2%
380 Tim Raines 86.0%
336 Ivan Rodriguez 76.0%

327 Trevor Hoffman 74.0%
317 Vlad Guerrero 71.7%
259 Edgar Martinez 58.6%
239 Roger Clemens 54.1%
238 Barry Bonds 53.8%
229 Mike Mussina 51.8%
199 Curt Schilling 45.0%
151 Lee Smith 34.2%
105 Manny Ramirez 23.8%
97 Larry Walker 21.9%
96 Fred McGriff 21.7%
74 Jeff Kent 16.7%
59 Gary Sheffield 13.3%
45 Billy Wagner 10.2%
38 Sammy Sosa 8.6%

17 Jorge Posada 3.8%

Posada drops off the ballot due to lack of support, and Lee Smith because he's finished 15 years on the ballot. Jim Thome, Chipper Jones, Scott Rolen, and Omar Vizquel will be eligible next year, so the ballot will remain stacked.
