The Italian and San Marinese juries consisted of 10 different people. You're saying those 10 professional just happened to like mostly the same songs? When they're all paid by the same people?Well, San Marino is in Italy, you know. I don't find it strange that they have similar taste in music. Take any country within a 'neighbourhood' and you'll see the same thing..maybe they won't agree on all countries all the time but they will on many. Ex yugos, ex soviets, Scandinavians. For example, Croatia and Slovenia voted for 9/10 same countries in the final..Albania, Russia, B&H, Italy, Sweden, Germany, F.Y.R. Macedonia, Serbia and Moldova..they only 'disagreed' on Ireland and Iceland. Does that mean they had agreed on the votes beforehand? Or that they just have similar taste? Even if you 'justify' some of those points with 'neighbour voting', there are still countries in there that were voted simply because they were liked by both nations.

9 countries gave Sweden 6 points and less.
We can make some educated guesses.Yes, those are the results I've seen. So, we don't know how the jury voted. We can make some assumptions but there can always be countries in a jury vote that don't appear anywhere in the combined results.

Italy pretty much matched San Marino almost vote-for-vote, which looks strange when 2 supposedly independent juries were voting. There's no way the 10 of them came to almost the exact same conclusions. And the differences are probably due to the Italian televote throwing a wrench in their shady plans.

When they are expecting to reveal the split votes ? 2 weeks passed form the grand final and they didn't reveal anything.
Last year results revealed 12 days after the grand final.
The fact that Portuguese jury gave 5pts to Georgia and zero to Sweden (the winner), proves my point about juries being incompetent
