Eurovision 2015 voting in doubt?

This article compares the official Eurovision 2015 results with those from the juries and the televoting, and shows the surprising differences if they had voted for their TOP 27 instead of the usual TOP 10. Since the introduction in 2009 of the 50% jury /50% televoting system, this is the first time that the winner […]

day 11 – vote for Leonor, Marta and Václav !

Obviously, neither Aïtor nor I believe Portugal or the Czech Republic can win their semifinal. Actually, they even aren’t our favorite songs.
