2019 Character Cup - Final Four






Talk about a nailbiter! Of 8 polls, 5 of them ended with a 1% difference including ALL of Character Cup polls and 1 of the mini-contest polls. That has never happened before! Just goes to show you how close this contest really is. It truly is anyone’s game. Today decides which 2 characters and which 2 shows will be in the finals so pass the word and remember that it is, as always, one vote per person per poll. In the prediction contest, more congratulations to Luana who retains the lead for 3 days in a row with 41 points. The only person who can possibly beat that now is Rn, who has 40 points. Today’s first poll will determine if they go into the finals tied or not. It should be a great contest today, so vote your choice, pass the word, and, as always, happy voting!
