As an example, let’s take Bradley and Fern.
Bradley got 1.6% of the vote but was eligible for one voting window whilst Fern got 6% and was eligible for two voting windows, therefore it’s not a fair comparison, so if Ferns vote is divided by two it’s likely she had 3% whilst Bradley had 1.6% at the same time.
Similarly it shows Louis and Fern were really close as she had 6% and Louis had 10%, Louis had three voting windows compared to her two, so if you Multiply Louis votes by 0.666 (2/3) he was 6.66%, meaning they were very close indeed. Also he will have picked up some of Ferns voters also meaning jt was probably even closer than 0.66% between them when Fern was evicted. This is assuming the same number of people vote in each window, which would make the most sense.
But basically these %s are taken at the end of all the voting windows so aren’t fair statistics of who is most popular, the only two comparable ones without diving the numbers are David and Nikita, if that makes sense?
It looks though that David/Nikkta were a bit ahead regardless, whilst Colston/Louis/Fern were all actually really close, and Bradley was dead last really

…ahhhh yeah, that does completely make perfect sense…you explained it beautifully and thank you for that…
…it’s kind of a flawed system in terms of giving final results, then…I would say…?….I can’t recall before the apps and social media voting etc…when it was only telephone votes, was the system the same in that the lines continually reopened to vote multiple times for a housemate…
