Share: ···

Circle 3 looked untouchable — holding the lead from day 1 all the way through day 18, never dipping below 20% of the cumulative vote. With Circle 5 locked in as a distant second for over two weeks, this felt like a coronation. Then, on day 19, everything flipped: Circle 8 surged past Circle 3 and never looked back, finishing at 21.7% versus 3's 16.4%.

The late takeover was driven overwhelmingly by women — 676 of Circle 8's 866 votes came from female voters, the largest single gender-option bloc in the poll. The U.S. cast 2,896 of 3,989 total votes and leaned hard toward Circle 8, cementing the upset. Meanwhile Circle 1 finished last with just 2.3%, and Circle 11 was barely above it — the field's two options combined couldn't match Circle 8's late-race daily surge.
