There were already talk of UJ being the next 1D but since Zayn last week went to as far as saying District 3 are his fave group act this year - can't help but think this is what has made some of the Union J fans [who are made up of 1D fans lets be honest ] jump ship?

I don't think Union J had the votes of the 1D fans, I think most of their fans have always backed D3 and James Arthur. The 1D boys and JLS both endorsed James Arthur, and are backing him for the win.

....so where does that leave Union J

Anyone who takes notice of what some lad in a boyband says and changes their vote accordingly should be banned from ever using a phone again.

True actually. 1D fans are more in favour of James and District 3 currently especially on twitter.
I just found it interesting the result tonight. Union J were pushed as the superior both as a band and with their fanbase but tonight showed District 3 are winning on the boyband fanbase currently. If they get their vocals in the forefront instead of the mashups again, they'll be way solid. District 3 vocally are better.
On the other hand for UJ - Jaymi is running the vocals for Union J - only shining light in that band.

1D fans are a loud minority. They couldn't even give 1D themselves the win.

I think it would be different if it was free to vote, 1D tend to win things like fan voted for Brit awards with a free internet vote but because their fans tend to be young their effect is less when they have to use their credit.
