Probably, Emma only said when it got down to the last 2 when Natasha was placed 3rd,that the gap between James and Austin was only around 2%.
You are spot on.

Imagine 30% of the voting public willing to spend money on Austin ****ing Armacost. I dispair, I really do.

It would be nice to know the number of total votes the winner received, then we could get some context for the %

For example, if there were only 1000 total votes, then the difference between 1st and 6th is relatively small, if there were 1 million votes, it wasn't close at all

Same

Well it's C5 so they probably only get about 200,000 votes cast for a final these days and the winner only gets like 70,000 of those votes. If there was 2% separating James and Austin, that would probably be somewhere around a few thousand votes.

BB finales don't get millions of votes cast anymore like the golden days did a decade ago.

I don't understand how Stevi & Chloe topped so many votes and then got such a little win percentage?

Messy voters.

Exhausted fanbase?

The reason Chloe and Stevie got in the top 4 was because Austin had had a go at Chloe who broke down. Sympathy vote.

Bobby, who would have been expected to be top 4 wasn't featured much during that vote to save, so he probably slipped into 5th.

not mostly young girls voting again

Natasha :(

(This was the final vote count after the final 3 vote)

Imagine worse than that LucasMichael? 45% of the British public spent money on voting for James ****ing Hill to win, and what was even worse was that BB played Mans Zelmerlow's Heroes when James came out of the house.:shocked:

His about as heroic as Patrick Star is intelligent on SpongeBob Squarepants.

The bromance obviously had a lot going for it. ~80% of the votes went to them two. Not surprised that James and Austin had that %, but I thought Tasha would be within 5% of Austin.

I was thinking more like...

James- 35%
Austin- 28%
Natasha- 25%

12% between the other three.

Natasha didn't really have the big vote. James and Austin most likely were dominating in the "all up" eviction vote when Farrah went.

They were probably miles ahead of anywhere else. I mean if Clovie got that terrible % in the final, to make it to the top 4 on that eviction night, they must have either gotten in there by luck (that the others were polling less than a 1%) or they lost a lot of support from that night.

Living for this result :lovedup:
