I could understand Elyssa winning the first week but 3 in a row? There are some interesting characters this season (Helen, Andy...) that should have gained more popularity after week 1. Call them brainwashed, brain dead, fantards, whatever, there has to be a few of them voting for Elyssa.

Yes, even the presidential one. Maybe there should be an Electoral College to sort out these votes!

Isn't it dumb to vote for someone without any idea about the issues? Shouldn't one take time to get informed before voting? If one blindly gives a vote away then isn't one acting as if having been brainwashed?
