This is crazy close

They are only seperated by 1.14% with a margin of error at 2.15%
Yeah. Hopefully Kris will get a crazy amount of text votes and pull off a miracle.

The west coast just started voting so it is will be interesting to see what happens. Thanks Kenny! I can't access Dial Idol to check, so the update was very much appreciated.
I'm getting really nervous with the west coast voting. Ugh.
You shouldn't be nervous. The West Coast for some reason doesn't seem to support Adam as much as Kris despite Adam living there. Then again, tonight is the finale so who knows.

I think Kris has this. It will be close but, as I've pointed out, it seemed like he had alot of momentum and alot going for him coming into this and the way tonight played out helped him a bit. Showing his family so much helped too. Plus, he is the king of text votes so that will help him pull away a bit. It's going to be tight and will probably be the tightest race since season 2 with Clay and Ruben but I expected that coming off last week and coming into this week.

I also think Adam may have in a way let Kris have it on the final song. Adam could've done so much more on that coronation song. He didn't act very Adam-like. It was subdued and, upon watching it back, with the exception of his eyes welling with tears, it felt lifeless by comparison to his other performances.

I'm fine with either one winning but my team and I voted for Kris and gave Adam a few courtesy votes just out of respect for all he has done. They both are truly talented and I look forward to tomorrow.

That will officially be my last post until I get back. I mean, it this time :laugh: . I really wish I could post during the finale with you all because that is the most fun but I will just catch up when I return. Let's hope all the voting paid off and that Kris wins tomorrow. I may not mind Adam winning but it would be nice seeing Kris win, especially with the judge's reactions LOL. I look forward to talking with you all about the show when I get back and have fun and behave everyone :wink: :smile: .

See you all in a week :smile: .

Well, since Texas is blue I obviously did my part, lol.

I really hope Kris wins but at this point it doesn't matter that much. I think they'll both have fine careers and for once I won't be bitter, even with the pimping, because even if Adam isn't my style he's talented and charming and seems like an all-around nice guy.

I was just looking at the state map and noticed that Kris and Adam do not even have phone voters measuring the busy dignals for them

DialIdol doesn't have anyone from Idaho, South Dakota, North Dakota or West Virginia set up to measure Adam's votes. And they don't have anyone in South Dakota, Deleware and Wyoming voting for Kris.

Radar Online

Simon Says Kris Will Win!

If Simon Cowell gets his way, there’s going to be a big upset in the American Idol finale. Cowell told RadarOnline.com Tuesday night that front runner Adam Lambert may just fall short of the top prize.

Right before taping of the show, Cowell said that despite America’s expectations of an Lambert victory, he believes underdog Kris Allen will win the competition.

Leave it to Simon to disagree with everyone! And yet, he’s right so often…

I don't know. They were evenly-judged tonight, I feel.

I wouldn't be shocked if Kris won.

I just think it be an injustice.

This whole season has been an injustice, LoL.

Justice, to me, is allowing the pimping to backfire. Justice = the shell shocked look on the faces of every judge when Kris is declared the winner. I can't think of a better payoff!

Simon predicting Kris to win is just more of his reverse psychology. He wants Kris fans to get complacent and scare the Adam fans into voting more furiously. I'm not blind to his bullshit!

I think Simon wants Adam to win, but he knows Kris' fans got him here so they can definitely get him the win.

After all... tomorrow is another day!

Do you guys really think Simon cares one way or another who wins? Enough to employ reverse psychology tactics?

I think all he cares about it is paycheck.

Yeah, he's saying Kris will win just to scare Adam fans into voting and also to cover his ass just incase Kris actually pulls off an upset. Simon does hate to be wrong, LoL.

One would think that's the case, but it's not, IMO. I don't think he wants the Idol franchise to become even more of a joke by crowning any winners that won't be commercially successful in his eyes.

The reverse psychology tactics are so obvious. Especially when it gets closer to the end. All season long, he's been wet in the pants for Adam, yet tonight he gave very middle of the road feedback compared to every other night this season. He wanted Adam fans scared into voting.

Ooooh, its very close...it definitely will be interesting, but I think Kris may have a chance unless Adam's fanbase comes ROARING out!

Who do I want to win? Honestly right now, I'm unsure.
