Regarding The Winner Of The Vote (Patreon)

The reason I’m writing this post is that my Patreon profile page was recently updated on a site that hosts leaks, specifically, the feed section. The problem is that the links for the polls are posted without any restrictions; this means anyone, even someone who isn’t a subscriber, can access them and cast a vote. They might do this just to cause trouble, or perhaps because they want a specific character to win in the hope that renders of that character will be leaked, I’m not entirely sure. Why am I bringing this up? Well...

A few days ago, Yor was leading the poll with 18%, while Yoruichi had 6%, Samus had 8%, and Miruko had 3% (she wasn’t even close to the top 6; characters like Magik and Black Cat were ahead of her, for instance). When I checked the poll again, I found that Yoruichi had jumped from third place to first with 34% of the vote, while Miruko had moved into second place with 12%, and Yor’s share had only increased to 19%.

To put it in simpler terms: one day, the two hottest dark-skinned women in anime history suddenly saw a surge in their vote counts.

Yoruichi went from 10 votes to 77

Miruko went from 6 to 26.

Usually, in these polls, even back when I only ran them on Patreon rather than Google, not everyone participates; that’s normal. The average total is usually around 140 votes. This time, however, there are 220, which is certainly possible, given the number of subscribers here (thank you all so much for that!) but you have to admit that jumping nearly 100 votes above the average is unusual. Curiously, Yoruichi and Miruko account for 87 of those votes alone. So, to prevent any sort of "coup d'état," ensure everything is in order, and confirm that this was just an incredible coincidence, I’ve decided to hold this follow-up poll to determine the true winner. It would be a real shame if Yoruichi ended up winning due to some kind of "fraud." If she truly is the rightful winner with those 70 votes, that will be reflected here as well... or at least, that’s what logic would dictate. (ᵕ—ᴗ—)
