Well known Chris topped the votes most weeks, hence the frenzied media campaign against him to get him out. Which didn't work - ha!
According to one of the tabloids and until the figures come out tonight it will remain speculation.

Think it would've mainly consisted of James/Jahmene/Chris and maybe Ella in the earlier stages.

Weeks 1-7 = Chris
Weeks 8-10 = Jahmene

I dont think it will be varied at the top at all, in fact i'd imagine them two pretty much being top 2 throughout the whole thing

The tabloid was the Daily Star, who was correct about Eoghan, Janet and the whole of Series 6 too. They have a proven track record of being right.

Had the reports been in the Sun (and just the Sun) then I wouldn't believe them as much

I'm looking forward to the vote percentages more than I am to finding out who has won. I think Rylan was near the bottom all the way through, whilst Chris was near the top, but not topping it every week as the Daily Star suggested.

Hmm I think:
Week 1 - Lucy
Week 2 - Ella
Week 3 - James
Week 4 - Chris
Week 5 - Chris
Week 6 - Jahmene
Week 7 - Union J
Week 8 - James
Week 9 - James

Final - James (I thnk he'll win)

I know the reports say that Chris topped the votes for god knows how many weeks but tbh I don't believe that!

re: Series 6. Even with Adedeji?
Yep, she topped the votes when she sang Proud Mary!

From the Daily Star week 8 leak, which was almost certainly credible (don't forget that as well as stating that Chris had consistently topped the vote, it also predicted that Ella would be bottom 2 as she'd been struggling badly in the voting). Ella was bottom 2 days later and left. Chris went all the way to the final without seeing the bottom 2 so I feel that the Daily Star leak was pretty much 100%. It is pretty clear that the producers, for whatever reason, leak this info to the Daily Star each year. They are consistently accurate with their leaked stats.

Don't be surprised if the stats show Chris topping the vote for 7-8 weeks before his vote percentage thinned (as many of us predicted it would). Jahmene we know has been top 2 all the way through. James we know hit bottom two quite recently so he has clearly resurged (with a hell of a lot of help from the show's production team).

If Jahmene doesn't win (and I now hope he does), he'll have been the real victim of the grossly unfair interference from producers. Chris was never gonna win in a final 2 scenario but Jahmene should. He has had a lot of help himself but probably didn't need it. The production are determined that James will win so look out for more stunts tonight to dampen Jahmene's appeal. I hope he wins it though.

I think Jahmene is probably storming it to be honest.
^^^^^ Very much this. I reckon he has romped every single week.

I wouldn't really be surprised at some unexpected orders throughout the weeks as I bet votes have been low.

I think Ella/Lucy/Jahmene were fighting for the top spot the first few weeks. Maybe Chris managed 1 or 2 weeks, making people think that he's doing well in the voting every week, which then got blown up to 'he's topping the vote every week'.
Around the halfway point I think Jahmene was starting to storm it, and in recent weeks (since being in the bottom two) James is catching up. Probably gaining the lead last night.

I think chris majority weeks then james probable after he hit b2 probable gave his fanbase a boost.

I think what well find is chris like eoghan had a solid fanbase to keep him top but as the contestants thinned out his didn't grow and others did

Chris top weeks 1-7. Winning the wildcard would have enabled him to win week 1 as it helped Amelia Lily in her return in series 8.

About 70% of the voters in the early live shows are 40+ year old females who would empathise with Chris. The obvious bullying also helped him gain momentum as the underdog with several campaigns to get him through each week as the anti-XF act. (This of course is stupid because the show continually pointed out their own nasty behaviour toward him to create the scenario where people vote for him to bring in revenue for Syco).

I think James won week 8 and 9 after being in the bottom 2. Tulisa's little rant telling the public to "vote for the right contestant, not for who who like" was a stroke of genius, with The Sun & The Mirror both giving James major coverage and starting "James to win" campaigns.

Jahmene has been over-pimped by the show. Even excusing the over-use of sob stories, the constant religious references have been hilarious. The "stairway to heaven" staging, sing "Angels", Nicole calling him "blessed" etc have been a massive contrast to the demonic head with laser eyes treatment Chris received.

So I think Chris, topped for most weeks, then fell away as the show said "vote for him if you're an 82 year-old woman who knows his nan."

James was middle of the votes most weeks but wasn't gaining until the XF "James to win" campaign started.

Jahmene was close to the top in the early weeks but never gained many new votes as the show went on and was close to going out at one point, which is why the show started on the heavy pimping.

Also, there have been rumours that Ella was close to the bottom two for several weeks, which means that the show knew what it was doing with the ultra-slow version of a pop song which put her in the bottom 2. I think they knew they would have James and Ella in the bottom 2 that week and used it to ramp up James' votes.
When Tulisa ranted "You can't keep voting the joke acts in", how many people though "Well you saved Rylan" - and who went out the following week? Another stroke of XF genius.

I think District 3 may have topped the rankings the week they did Dynamite, by the way.
I agree, with the fact they were in the bottom two the week before and seeing as this was one of their best performances, it's possible.

I think it's going to be Ella, James & Jahmene topping the votes.

I doubt it. James did LMFAO and I think that stood out more. Week 5 would have been more likely, when the judges slated them to bits.
