Voters don't have to give reasons. I'm sure it's true that some people will have voted to evict Kenny because she's black. There will also be people who support her for the same reason. Same goes for regional support, or support for LGBT housemates.

The only thing that's a definite NO is nominating people and stating ethnicity as a reason. That would lead straight to the exit door.

Kenny was nominated by the public for having fewer fans (not on this forum) than the others. Not a vote against her for being black.

As the vote was a two-way contest it could be seen as a positive vote to keep Akeem in as well as a negative vote against Kenny. If it had been a three-way vote with Lewis involved she may have had a chance of staying as voters would take sides in the Akeen vs Lewis argument and vote accordingly.
