It's being reported that the Idol votes may have been exaggerated for winner Kris Allen. Apparently AT&T representatives went to "viewing parties" with demo phones, and showed fans in Arkansas how to "power text" for Allen. The power texts would in effect be 10 votes for every text vote sent. Idol has released a statement saying the in no way was the voting affected by these "viewing parties." Whatever happened, the margin was reportedly so large that it wouldn't have helped Adam Lambert anyhow. Thursday, May 28, 2009
