I will say it again - I believe Kris has been the top vote getter for quite a while. His homecoming proved out my theory--it's all about little girls with unlimited texting.
Danny probably has more fans than Kris, but they are an older and more diverse audience. I was shocked to see all the middle aged and older men at the Summerfest grounds when Danny gave his concert. Problem was, many of those fans didn't vote.

Agree. The attendance at the hometown event appeared to be predominately under teenage fans....
That said Chris is a talent, and this should be an interesting finale.
His artistry vs Adams vocal skills.
Does anyone know what the Finale format has been or will be?
I think that will go a long way to deciding the outcome.

I think what we saw was a commentary on the nature of America cities.
Adam - San Diego - large city ( 1,266,731 pop ) - West Coast - Idol no big deal - had to go to local venues to get support
Danny - Milwaukee - ( 602,191 pop) Midwest city - proud to get some recognition - good mix of age groups
Chris - Little Rock - smaller city (187,452)- South - bring out the town to show we can do it.
Lots of kids due to fan base , and more family interest.
