Entries for journalism awards are chosen by 65 editors, publishers, writers and educators (broken into juries of 5 persons) from material appearing in any US newspaper published daily, Sunday, or at least weekly during the calendar year, with nominations for the cartooning category being limited to a portfolio of 20 cartoons.
Named in honor of Harvey Kurtzman, the Harvey Awards were created under the co-sponsorship of Fantagraphics Books, Lone Star Comics (a Texas-based retail chain) and the ERCBRA, and were devoted to the recognition by professionals of the achievements of their peers.
Unusual for comics awards on a number of counts, the Ignatzes are "festival prizes" nominated by an anonymous board of independent cartoonists, and voted on by all attendees of the SPX expo (rather than by the committee-based system preferred by most awards boards).

Harvey's worlds were, at least in their EC incarnations, never fair.
He'd invested his life in the crazy belief that comics were art, and not anything to apologise for, and that investment reaped its dividends in the lives it influenced, in those of us who believed it too, and acted accordingly.
I'm at the age where they start to give you lifetime achievement awards, and you rather wish they wouldn't, because it may be some kind of a hint that it's time for you to sit down and shut up.

 Three wild cards could impact awards races   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-17)
In Harvey's case, he practically invented contemporary Oscar campaigning, merging his twin loves for films and politics by bringing political campaign tactics to Hollywood's annual awards elections.
While there may have been some missteps along the way, for which Miramax and Harvey were duly slapped around by the media, the effect of all this has been to make Oscar campaigning more interesting and certainly more competitive and expensive than it was pre-Harvey.
But regardless of whether Harvey stays or goes at Miramax, this awards season is likely to see him competing more vigorously than ever (if that's actually possible, which could be a good topic for some other conversation).
