Will the steroid users like Barry Bonds and Roger Clemons make it in the first time their names are on the first ballot?

The announcement will be at 2 PM Eastern Time today.
Thanks for this!

No one was voted in!!! That hasn't happened since 1996. Still, there will be some inductees. See below.

There will still be an induction ceremony in Cooperstown, N.Y., on July 28. Longtime Yankees owner Jacob Ruppert, turn-of-the-20th-century umpire Hank O'Day and 19th-century catcher Deacon White were elected to the Hall last month by the Pre-Integration Committee, and their memories and heirs will be honored on that date. All three are deceased.

Tom Cheek, who called the first 4,306 regular-season games and 41 postseason games in Blue Jays history, will receive the Ford C. Frick Award for "major contributions to baseball" posthumously on July 27 during a ceremony at Doubleday Field. He is survived by his wife, Shirley, who is expected to be in Cooperstown to accept the award.
Paul Hagen of MLB.com will be presented the J.G. Taylor Spink Award for "meritorious contributions to baseball writing" and will also be honored at Doubleday Field that day.

I am so glad that the known steriod users did not make it in on the first ballot. However, I am sure that in due course they will be voted in. If they are voted in then I want Pete Rose voted in too!

Biggio had the most votes but did not have the required 75% of all ballots to gain admittance.

George, you don't have an opinion about steroid use?
