I've done a chart for each of the Seasons that I've completed of American Idol, where I combine my rankings of contestants on each night, and start tallying up points to how the series would've gone in each Season if it was up to me.
Obviously the contestants that were in less weeks are disadvantaged, because they can't pick up points in my chart when they've been eliminated from the competition.
Anyway we're going to start with Season 9.
1st Place - Crystal Bowersox - 66 points (after 11 performances)
