Only those ballots contained in the ballot box at the end of a given night will be used to calculate each competitor’s score. Quarter Finals through the Finale: A panel of three independent judges’ votes (weighted 80%) and the audience vote (weighted 20%) will determine which competitors advance from the Quarter Finals through the Finale. The judges’ decisions will be based upon the following five criteria: (1) Ability, (2) Stage Presence (3) Appearance (4) Rapport With Audience and (5) Audience Participation. The judges will award points in each of the five categories on a scale of 1 to 20 (for a maximum possible score of 100 points).
