New HCD Mediacurves poll results released

I just received the results via e-mail of the HCD Research Mediacurves poll after last night's episode of American Idol. Last week I was curious where Katie and Andrew's 15% of the vote would end up, and it looks like most of it ended up with Crystal! Crystal's number was up to a staggering 44.5% of the vote this week with Siobhan surprisingly number two, but at a distant 12.4%. Lee and Casey are pretty much tied at 10.8/10.7% with Mike right behind them at 9.6%. Finally Tim has 7.3% and Aaron again is at the bottom with 4.8%. Last night only 3,081 people responded so their level of response keeps getting lower. So for this week Crystal Bowersox received more votes than Siobhan, Lee, Casey and Mike combined. So much for the backlash from her "quitting" rumor...

  1. Hi,

    Thanks for posting our Idol Democracy results on your blog. I'm glad you find our study interesting. I wanted to also address your concern regarding the decline in our respondent numbers. We have recently had to work with a new deadline, which causes us to end our studies earlier and therefore decreases the time people have to complete the study. However, even at 3,000 our results are still statistically valid.

    I also wanted to inquire about your graphs on idol contestant's facebook fans. I think it is a great idea to track this over time and I would be very interested in seeing a table of the raw numbers. Would it be possible for you to send me this data?

    Thanks again for the great coverage of our study. If you or any of your readers would like further information about our study, it can be found at http://www.mediacurves.com/

    Thanks again,
