Over the last week we have asked fans from Australia (and abroad) to vote for the Eurovision 2023 songs in the traditional voting style (ie. 12 points, 10 points, 8 points... etc).
Each fan could only vote for a country once, but you could vote for your own nation, a little different to Eurovision.
217 fans took part with Australians making up 49% of votes, Europeans comprising 42% and the Rest of the World just under 9%. Overall a whopping 2,170 votes were cast.

37. Romania: Theodor Andrei - 'D.G.T. (Off and On)' (19 points)

So there you have it, Finland is the favourite entry so far this Eurovision season with Sweden in a close second.
However, for voters outside of Australia, Loreen from Sweden takes out 1st place.
The top two entries from Finland and Sweden are head and heels above the rest in points but it's worth noting the large jump from 6th place Czechia and 5th place Norway too.
Also, the large jump in points between 13th place Armenia to 12th place Serbia. Each layer of favourites has a very strong, discrete jump!
Who will take out the title in Liverpool, we have just over a month to find out!
