While searching for the actual vote tally, I checked out the FOX network's website for American Idol. From the Contestants page, I clicked through to each one's Facebook page. Here are the fanbase results as of 4:00am EDT (USA) for the remaining 8 contestants:
8. Haley Reinhart 9,133
7. Jacob Lusk 9,900
6. Stefano Langone 12,063
5. Lauren Alaina 14,409*
4. Paul McDonald 17,034
3. Casey Abrams 22,708
2. James Durbin 25,131
1. Scotty McCreery 54,230
(* Lauren Alaina has multiple pages dedicated to her. Only the fan count on the contestants' pages linked to the official FOX site are used for comparison.)
There could be a trend here?
