How many singers they line up to the blind auditions every series? Because when it comes close to the end the coaches become more picky and lots of contestants are sent home.
Another question I've got is: how are they put into an order? Because the first ones has clearly best chance on getting a chair than the last ones.

[Later] According to Wikipedia, we've had 10+10+11+15 = 46 acts so far, and the coaches have picked 4+8+8+8 = 28 acts, so at that rate 79 acts will be needed. However, the proportion of acts turned for reduces as the auditions continue and each coach has fewer slots free. The final episode will get through dozens of acts without bothering to show many of them in full (and Will will be the only coach with free slots). Also, when all the slots are filled, presumably there are some acts left over who never get to audition at all. 100 seems like a nice round number for the total available.
[Even later] In year 1 (2012), 11+16+17+13 = 57 acts auditioned. Year 2 had 10+12+11+12+20+19 = 84. Year 3 had 9+9+12+13+14+15+18 = 90. I think this year we have 7 audition episodes again, so we'll probably see around 90 acts again.
One poor girl was rejected twice.
Now that is amazing, considering the massive population of the States.
It is but I think at the same time The Voice was such an unknown entity. It was obviously big in its home country which is Netherlands I believe.
Outside of that The Voice US is probably a huge reason for the global expansion of "The Voice" brand.
Im guessing maybe the producers misjudged how many they would need or they didn't have the volume due to it being unknown field for the most part at the time.
I suppose it depends on how big the names of Adam Levine, Blake Shelton, Cee Lo Green & Christina Aguleira were with the time they had to promote who the coaches were before the auditions took place.
The Blind Audition pool is finite, regardless of the population!
I think the coaches were a bit pickier than the producers expected. The premise is that all the singers who get in front of the coaches are good enough. It's personal preference that rules the day.
The first few US seasons, there were NO open calls. All the contestants were scouted and invited. Now the show is too popular and they had to open up the process.
