This contest doesn't sit well with me. Can anyone guess why

Ready to win $100,000 for the schools in your town?
Here's How It Works:‘Tis the season for twinkling lights and holiday magic! This year, we’re inviting each Patch town to vote on the very Best Decked House, and rewarding the whole community with $100,000 for their schools!
- Nominate Your House at its brightest
- Vote for the very Best Decked House in your neighborhood
- Enter to win $100,000 for your public schools.
Who wins what? One house per Patch will be chosen—by you!—as the Winner in your Patch. Of these best and brightest, our judges will select 24 National Finalists from Patch communities shining all over the country. And since it’s the season of giving, we’ll take care of their holiday spirit-spiked electricity bill for the entire month of December (up to $500* this was recently edited by Patch. It originally just said $500, now it's "up to" $500.)
Finally, the one Grand Prize Winner—again, chosen by you!—will earn $100,000 for public schools in their town! Ok, enough details. Upload your Best Decked House now, and show how your town outshines the rest!
