@JasonPearlman@ZackPolanski This doesn't say much. If you have, say, just 20% of a population who vote for Israel for political reasons, and 80% who wouldn't, Israel would do really well in a televote, with the other 80% split among 24 countries.

It is not an exaggeration to say that, in terms of sheer depth of quality, this is one of the strongest Festival da Canção selections we will have ever seen.
This is sure to be an epic festival of music, and we cannot wait until 22nd February to get started! #festivaldacanção
