In the overall popularity poll Alex has 30% (Kate has 32% and Jonny 31%). Our Tim has an amazing 0%. But what's this? - In the eviction poll Alex is 48% to Tim's 52%......According to these dazzling statistics Tim could win.......

You really can prove anything with statistics then.....

I heard something about Alex wanting to walk, so maybe people are voting him to leave for that reason...

I think Tim's 'popularity' in the eviction poll has more to do with the dislike of alex rather than the supporting of Tim.

it s just the johnny and kate fans voting for alex to go ,on the big scale theres no chance alex will go its 1/50 tims going now thats big

Also note bookies have all closed their books on this weeks eviction - possibly due to the fact that Tim was offered at 11/1 odds this pm - maybe the sindicates have got on board and fancy their chances of returning a profit by voting out Alex instead of Tim.

It is also possible Kate/Jonny supporters will be gunning for Alex this week to improve their chances of the winner they want.

Also both Spencer and PJ on BBLB tonight (Tuesday) have stated they want Alex to be voted out this week.

Most bookies have also reduced Alex to 3rd fav to win overall.

I think something strange is going on about 15 mins ago I check it and Tim was on 67% now hes on 49%.

if I refresh my page about 2 or 3 people have voted again.

The same happened last week with Kate and PJ

Last weeks poll was also a complete load of tosh for the first 1,000 votes or so showing a 50-50 split - I shouldn't bother looking at the totals at all for a day or so if I were you!

See how long it takes me to type a couple of lines.

Just think how much garbage I could post if only I could type properly.

Scarey isn't it.

The Digital Spy poll in question has been closed until we are sure that it has not been tampered with.

Just checked again and the poll has been removed.

No, but what you need to do is look at the data you are presented with an open mind.

30% favour alex to win: ergo 66% favour someone else (I can't work out why all the DS polls total 96% either ;o) There is no paradox in the result at all.

When it comes to Alex against a no-hoper there is quite a lot of margin for "tactical" votes. Tim is a no hoper (from the £70 viewpoint today and he will be next week. Alex has always looked a potential winner which is probably why Kare has had the awareness to keep nominating him.

If I were a Jonny fan or a Kate fan I would be voting hard for Alex to leave this week. Voting for Tim serves no purpose other than to satisfy some pathetic little phobia of public school types. The bookies are pretty shrewd on this. At 10/1 if any decent bets have gone down there is good incentive to keep redialling.

Moi: no vote this week. If it comes to Kate vs Jonny then my 200 votes go to Kate. It's easy with a redialer.

This week every single vote for Alex is an anti alex vote: in a three way tie things are much less certain.

Nice to see i'm not alone in having a post pre-empted Tracy.

Sorry but shouldn't it be "every vote for Tim is an anti-Alex vote"

Trying not to be a smart-arse but probably failing

Anyone got any other poll results? Hopefully RISE do one in the moring

Its quite obvious really isnt it ? One poll is "who is your favourite" and Tim achieves a resounding zero. Nobody likes him over anyone else. However, there are a lot of others who would favour Jonny/Kate/Jade and would therefore possibly prefer Tim to Alex. If 100% of people dont like Tim the best but only 30% like Alex best, that leaves up to 70% who could prefer to see Alex evicted over Tim.

If this hasn't been posted before: this morning's RI:SE poll was running about 65% Tim 35% Alex

The Rise poll this morning had 70% for Tim and 30% for Alex.

Which sounds pretty acurate to me.
