If you had to select the winner based on the assorted merits (technical skill & range, rate of improvement, charisma & stage presence, etc.), whom would you pick for the _So You Think You Can Dance_ finale tonight? ---

I’m torn between Kent and Lauren. I’d be happy with any of them winning…they all deserve it. But those two are my favorites. ---

I _like_ Kent and Lauren, but I think Robert has shown the most growth and versatility. Yeah, I’m surprised I voted for him too. ETA: Great use of the poll function, **ArchiveGuy**! ---

Based solely on last night’s performances, I thought Lauren blew the other two off the stage and deserves to win. But, that doesn’t change the fact that I did actually did pick up the phone and tried to call in for Kent last night. Just love that kid. (I got a busy signal and didn’t get through.) ---

I voted for Lauren. I love Kent and I love Robert, I love them all, but if we’re talking about who has the whole package deal - poise, grace, strength, technical ability, versatility, etc. - it’s Lauren. While Robert’s my _favorite_, Lauren is the best. I will be happy whoever wins though (well, happy for the winner and sad for the other two who deserved to win as well.) It was a very difficult decision. ---

> [@Enderw24](#): > > Who will win? Kent > Who would I like to have win? Lauren I’m not convinced Kent’s a sure thing. The voting has been close throughout the season and I know a number of people voting for Lauren. I’m almost thinking she’s most likely to win at this point.
