Where will Stefano's votes transfer?

I always wonder when an artist is eliminated, where The bulk of his support may transfer to.

I have been surprised that so many girls went in quick succession as I would have thought that some of the support might transfer for those who have a preference for female voices.

Who do Stefano's fans on here support now, if anyone? Is there a second choice that unites you or a significant no of you?

This interest is part of me being a voting nerd and linked to the AV debate

imagine it will be his bro James,presumably that's what Stefano himself wants.

The bulk of the votes don't go anywhere. Particularly the votes of the rampant supporters of any contestant who multivote so ultimately contestant elimination makes none of the difference that some people seem to think it does.

I agree. Some will stop voting completely and the rest will be pretty evenly distributed - I don't think there will be an uniformity in who Stefano fans' second favourite is.

I suppose there will be some who transfer loyalty on sentiment.

I think though that more people support an artist because of attributes relating to their singing or performance style and therefore if they saw similar attributes to a different degree in others, that might do it.

I tend to go for male voices that are strong, but controlled or else a pleasing quirk. Some others go more for a genre.

I think with voting being free you probably get some transfer of votes but I agree that a lot of people probably don't bother, especially if they were invested in just one person who was then voted out

There's probably not that many to transfer! But I agree with other comments that James is likely to inherit them. Possibly Jacob too, if an R&B fan stays true to their genre.

James, Jacob, Lauren or perhaps even Haley.

There would've been more if I'd been able to vote, but I'm sure he got a decent share of some 50 million votes, even if it was the smallest share last week

My support will be transferred to James - they were always my 2 favourites (apart from when Lauren Turner was around, and they were my 3 favourites) and I love Stefano and James's bromance, but I would still support James even if he hadn't been so close to Stefano. I lik Lauren and Scotty too
