That is exactly what is happening. This started last year when Ashleigh was made a power housemate. There was poll saying "if the power housemate was to return, who would you give it too". Ashleigh ended up on top so they decided to give her the role of power housemate even though they never once said that this poll was going to decide anything. A lot of people didn't even know about the poll, it was never announced on the main show or BBBOTS.
I'm amazed there are so many people falling for this stuff. I guess they like to get messed about with, either that or they are too stupid to realise what is actually happening.
