YouGov get X Factor Prediction Right
Congratulations to Joe McElderry on winning the X Factor last night! Joe got 61.3 per cent of the final vote, with Olly on 38.7 per cent.
YouGov predicted Joe’s landslide in a poll for the Sun on Saturday. We also correctly predicted that Olly would beat Stacey to make it through to the final two acts on Sunday.
Joe’s career now looks set to flourish as American film and music companies pile in to cash in on his good looks, great voice, and ‘cute British accent’. It is likely that Simon Cowell will pitch Joe as ‘the new Zac Efron – the star of the High School Musical franchise.

Ironically, on the same day the New York Times article, “Safety Rules Can’t Keep Up With Biotech Industry” broke, the scientific watchdog group, The Council for Responsible Genetics-GeneWatch Magazine submitted the electronic version of the print subscription; March-April 2010 issue titled, “BioLab Safety”.
The Editor of GeneWatch, Sam Anderson stated in the Editorial Section, ” This may be one of the most important GeneWatch issue in recent memory”.
The electronic version of GeneWatch magazine; BioLab Safety is available free online at http://issuu.com/genewatchmagazine/docs/genewatch23-2?mode=embed&layout=http%3A%2F%2Fskin.issuu.com%2Fv%2Flight%2Flayout.xml&showFlipBtn=true This 28 page electronic version can be read as you would a “printed” magazine issue.
