I mean the only time something like this has happened, in my memory, was BB13 - Becky, as awful as she became, was by far the loudest and craziest candidate (I did like Bhavesh and Anthony as well) and she quite comfortably won IIRC.
I suppose that's a fair point, and it is in effect a vote to save - perhaps if it was a strict online only vote that they didn't really publicise, the forums and superfans would be able to control the outcome and put together a decent cast

The problem is the casuals, once they're encouraged to join in standards start slipping and it's 'oooh isn't he cute xx' or 'he seems really nice!' that become the reasons people are voted in. I don't know, I think I'd rather just leave the casting team who are employed to do this to their own devices (even if the casts aren't always on-point)
