It won’t be long before all the OGAE fan clubs have voted and the winner of the OGAE 2019 Poll is decided. But until then, five more clubs have revealed their votes, with clubs representing the Rest of the World, Malta, Turkey, Belarus and Portugal giving their top tens.
OGAE Rest of the World is the group for any fans who don’t have an OGAE representing their own country. And like most OGAE, the ROW gave their stop points to poll leaders Italy, the Netherlands and Switzerland. OGAE ROW did, however, throw two points the way of Australia, finally putting Kate Miller-Heidke on the board.
OGAE Malta gave their top points to Switzerland, Norway’s KEiiNO and Italy. Overall favourites the Netherlands only received six points. Malta also had four points to give to the UK, throwing some anglophonic love to Michael Rice.
The Turkish fan community had their say when OGAE Turkey voted. Their top points went to Switzerland, Italy and Iceland’s award-winning, apocalyptic, flagrantly sexy jesters Hatari. Turkey also recognised Turkish crooner Serhat, by giving San Marino five points.
OGAE Belarus gave their top points to Italy, Switzerland and Russia. Belarus’ eight points was the second highest score for Sergey Lazarev, and took his overall total to 99 points.
And OGAE Portugal followed the fan favourites, with their top points going to Italy, the Netherlands and Switzerland. Portugal also had four points for Slovenia’s Zala and Gapser, and one point for North Macedonia’s Tamara Todevska.
Meanwhile, on the overall scoreboard, Italy has solidified its lead with 331 points. Following very closely behind is Switzerland on 328 points, with the Netherlands in third with 325 points. With only six points between the top three, the overall winner is still impossible to predict at this stage.
The OGAE Poll reflects the top picks of the OGAE fan network and is not considered a scientifically accurate prediction of Eurovision results. However, it does offer a strong indication of what songs are fan favourites and is good at predicting which songs won’t qualify for the grand final.

calling everyone who enjoys Kate to vote for it on Tuesday and Saturday
My 20 votes are already saved for the queen <3
Romania and Serbia. Somebody send some points their way!
Portugal !!! My second favourite after Italy… how is it possible just 19 points ??? For me is a masterpiece
However it goes, conan is like mahmood, winners or not they are talented, they are unique, they have an IMPACT.
Portugal is so undervalued. Conan exactly deserves a top10 at least 🙁
Every single OGAE diaspora voting except Portugal. Thanks from Spain mates! It isn’t I care about the result, but it is curious to say the least.
kii how does ogae belarus have more than twice as many members as ogae russia
Im surprised that Ireland has not picked up a single point yet. Not a great song, but still good enough to score points. I am really worried about its chances of qualifying.
Serbia is one of my favourites. Obviously I am in the minority. Why are there so many people out there that do not appreciate great talent.
Ireland is good but it has to be a top 10 material in order to get points
Italy on the lead bishhhhh PIRYDDDDDDT
finally someone noticed the gem and masterpiece “Zero Gravity” is
Australia needs rest of the world to have point. Says it all. Australia is not in Europe and has nothing to do in EUROvision.
How old are you – 12?
Well if you don’t know how to place Australia in a map I think it’s you the 12yo
Australian broadcaster has been co-operating with the EBU a long time, and if you want to play smart and teach us a lesson in geography, you should rule out Israel, Azerbaijan to start with, too. IMO Australia has refreshed the contest in a good way with its entries.
Thank you for your positivity! Nicolas doesn’t know the word RESPECTFUL.
I have news for you Nicolas – I live in Australia! I’m tired of your hateful attitude and if you want to serve it up, I’ll dish it right back.
OK I apologize. My comment was not meant to hurt Aussie people.
Are you 8?
Thank you Nicolas, I really appreciate it.
Your shtick is old.
Congrats, Kate! Romania and Serbia shouldn’t stay nil pointers!
Totally agree about Serbia…….well spotted.
