Eurovision 2018: Voting Order & Spokespersons
The voting order and spokespersons for Eurovision 2018 Grand Final have been revealed
As the previous years, the voting order has been determined by the broadcaster. Other years the voting order was decided by an algorithm to try to make the voting as exciting as possible, based on the results from Friday's Jury Rehearsal. This year the jury votes are split from the televotes, so the order is determined based on technical and operational logistics.
