Because of Sido who should have never been on the jury because he hated Conchita.
There's no homophobic rapper on the jury this year.

Hmmm, none of the jurors ranked her high though, I guess they listened to him? I saw that Madeleine Juno liked Austria in the Semis and then changed her mind a few days later.

I'm sure he influenced them. He was a juror on an Austrian casting show and already hated Conchita back then when she was a contestant.
Germany gave Austria just 4 points in the semi and in the grand final they gave Austria 7 points although the competition was tougher. Austria won the German televote in the semi and the final. So the jury ranked Conchita very low and higher when they realized it would make them look biased not doing so in the final. It's not a coincidence that Germany gave less points to Austria than all other Western countries (apart from San Marino). That was all Sido.

A RuPaul music video is the forerunner to the first ESC live broadcast in the US. Fitting?
