Damn, thats a lot....
Any other way to get voted?
The number of votes needed is almost 13M not 1.3M. The lower limit to enter the top 201 is currently at ~12% approval and that has been slowly rising for months. Supply is ~106M now.
Here's a simplified list of vote counts for delegates:

Here is the explorer page for delegate monitor with % approval listed:

You can earn votes by contributions to the community, furthering the Oxy project, or otherwise convincing enough voters that your delegate is worth supporting but it's a tough level to reach if your delegate doesn't share and you do not have a very large wallet to supplement outside votes.
Most delegates offer to share a large % of their forging with their voters in exchange for votes.
If you do want to try to forge there are guides on Medium on doing the node set up. This is the node set up step. There an initial server step to do prior to this.
