"Good" opened with a real cushion, up 40% over "Bad" from day one. It held that gap for twelve straight days — then cracked. By day 13 "Bad" overtook it and the margin only widened from there, settling near 46% ahead for the final month-plus with barely a vote moving the needle.

The men voting "Bad" (133) outnumbered men voting "Good" (103), and the UK's 220 votes leaned the same way — the country that showed up most didn't want the FSA gone. Once the early window closed, this poll wasn't contested again; it just accumulated the same verdict for 50 more days.

  • Day-13 flip · "Bad" overtook "Good" and never gave it back
  • Early window · Entire race decided in the first 13 of 65 days
  • UK tilt · 220 UK votes, the top country, leaned "Bad"
