¿QUIÉN GANA GRAN MEDIÁTICO?

Iñaki A. held a steady lead for seven straight days, never dipping under half the vote. Then day 8 arrived: Diego Vázquez Melo flipped it, closing at 51% to win the poll outright, 2,559 votes to 2,462.

The comeback didn't come from the poll's biggest room. Uruguay, the largest voting bloc with 201 votes, still preferred Iñaki A. — Diego's win was built elsewhere. The final gap: two points, 97 votes, the tightest possible finish after a week that pointed the other way.

• The Flip · Iñaki A. led all seven days before day 8's reversal
• Uruguay Dissents · Poll's biggest bloc (201 votes) still backed the runner-up
• Photo Finish · Just 97 votes separate first and second place
