You know, at the end of that article, Ollie, it has a comment, from a friend of the Daughtry family, and she says:
"Some fans around his hometown fear their votes were mistakenly credited to one of the other contestants because they'd get another hopeful's voice thanking them for the call instead of Daughtry's, family friend Tracey Adams said"
No matter what, THAT needs to be looked in to. I KNEW something wasn't right. Even though Chris will do better without winning, he did NOT deserve to leave on Wednesday night, and everyone knows it.
I read that as well...I had also heard that from someone I knew as well. I just wanst sure when she said it. When I read that, I figured it was a problem around the states. It should be looked into. Of course, i also read your statement about his line not being busy but a few times, and I got through as well with no problem. I never had that problem, but again, my friend had that problem and she was talking about that same thing...so I think something may have happened...but whats done is done I guess. Its still so very wrong.
Of course thats just my opinion....I could be wrong. (Dennis Miller)

I was shocked to hear that Taylor and Chris were room mates all this time on the show. We had heard it was Elliott that Taylor shared a room with. The source listed was a Chris exit interview.
I wouldn't be a bit surprised to find out that Kat gets a lot less votes because of this.
I'm also pretty ticked off that they haven't looked into the claims that many have made about calling Chris' lines, and getting another contestants voice, thanking them for voting.

I'd be surprised if it didn't happen. It happened with Nikki McKibbin and Jasmine Trias, it always happens at the Final Four. Someone gets dropped, people go crazy, and the person that was supposed to get dropped goes home.

I always find funny the uproar about a contestant getting the boot at this point. There have been very good, even great contestants booted before now. I also find the conspiracy theories entertaining. If people were actually calling for Chris and someone else was thanking them for voting don't you think that would have been reported before the results were revealed? Interesting how these convenient stories come out after someone we like gets the boot. I don't remember near the screams when Mandisa was sent home WAAAAAYY too early. Let's all get over it and enjoy the rest of the show!
Lawless said this in post #114 : Actually, niwrad, I saw a lot of posts about the wrong voices hours before the results were revealed.
And Mandisa went at the right time... in my opinion.
I guess that's a big par of my point, that a lot of it boils down to opinion. I must have missed the posts about the wrong voices since I didn't see them until after the results were announced.
Not on here. On official boards, for contestants. I go to a lot of Chris' boards, and read different comments, to see what people are saying about him.
When I saw a comment, here and there, saying that they thought that they dialed Chris' line, but heard Kat's voice, thanking them, I was wondering what was going on. But, it happened, more and more.
It's over though, and I think that I'm fine. Sure, I will miss seeing Chris tomorrow night, and hearing his voice. But, he will be back again, and I will be happy when his first album, no matter who it's with, comes out.

There is a link out there, where AI is talking about the phone number mix up, and they are claiming, basically, that it didn't happen.
YET, phone calls, and e mails, went out, starting Wed morning, all over the internet, and to Fox, about this. They did NOTHING.
I'm NOT surprised. AI screwed up, and is doing nothing to make this right.
