So using the raw votes as just a comparison of general popularity, from this week's chart we can probably guess that the folks on the top are pretty safe, and the ones at the bottom are likely to be in the Bottom 3. I can also guess that since Malaya and MK were in the Bottom 3 last week, few folks with waste their votes calling in for them when their chances of lasting long on the show are slim. Malaya and MK are again on the bottom of the chart again this week with CJ Harris and even Alex Preston and Caleb Johnson not too far away. The only ones safe for sure from the Bottom 3 this week are probably Sam Woolf, Jessica Meuse, Ben Briley and Dexter Roberts. Last week the Bottom 3 were all female, but with Kristen gone this week, I am guessing it will be Malaya an MK with one of the guys with them, probably CJ. If it again a third lady joining Malaya and MK (perhaps Jena or Emily) that would definitely be a sign that this is going to be another "guy's" season.<br /><br />
