the reason IS THE VOTING SYSTEM
so the closest answer here is the sympathy vote for jasmine-- the fact that all of Hawaii can get in a very disproportionate amount of votes. and there's even the fact that diana's teenage girl fans (something latoya definitely has less of) can put in as many votes as 5 times as many older fans.

I didn't realize that the ability to dial a phone deteriorates with age  Also, wouldn't younger fans be limited to some extent as to how much time they can spend voting? The show airs on a school night, and voting doesn't end until 11 PM-most pre-teens probably have bedtimes before that. Of course, some older fans might also go to bed early if they have to wake up early for work, so who knows? |

I'd say a combination of nearly all of those.

Oh, not to say Hawaiians aren't mature. It's just clearly the voting system. |

Jasmine got the sympathy vote. It seems that whenever the judges harshly criticize a popular contestant, that person gets a lot of votes. It's partly anti-judge, especially anti-Simon.

I bet Bush is a closet Idol fan, and as soon as he makes his decision that week he has an army of people from all time zones call in.
This week, he chose Jasmine. Simple as that!

Jasmine definitely got the sympathy vote. It's all or nothing for her (well, all three) for record contracts. Yeah, Kimberley Locke has had some success, but I don't expect too much more, not even MTV or VH1 shows her video. I truly think if Jasmine can make it in the the top two she will sell as many records as Kelly, even if Fantasia would win the competition. If Diana makes it into the top two, I see her becoming a worse-version of Justin, it would just be a disaster

None of the above. Jasmine is going to make a better record.

Heh... of course, you'd say that about all the finalists, so it wouldn't justify why she would be eliminated before the others. |
