Finland literally got 87% of all available public votes (376/432) AND YET even if they got 100% of the possible public points (150+432 = 582) they still wouldn’t have overtaken Sweden (583), and that’s the heart of the problem. If every single country agrees on the best song, it should absolutely win. This is why everyone is SO mad at the juries this year, even though Loreen came second in the televote. It’s why people are (jokingly) asking for negative voting, because the juries made it literally impossible for the overwhelming favourite to win
in case nobody here follows esc outside of tumblr/youtube/tv, there’s a LOT of drama going on right now on the eurovision official social media because people are complaining this year’s contest was a bit rigged so sweden could win 👀
