OGAE Bosnia & Herzegovina: 12 points to Norway

OGAE Bosnia and Herzegovina are the latest country to award their 12 points to Scandinavia in 2008, but to Sweden's neighbours, Norway. Sweden actually scored their lowest position so far, just three points to the runaway leaders. In a refreshing set of votes, only Serbia scored points from all the ex-Yugoslavian countries, the votes have been evenly spread across the entire reach of the participating countries.

The Full OGAE Bosnia Herzegovina vote:

  • 12 p Norway
  • 10 p Serbia
  • 08 p Greece
  • 07 p Turkey
  • 06 p Armenia
  • 05 p France
  • 04 p Cyprus
  • 03 p Sweden
  • 02 p Switzerland
  • 01 p Romania

Just missing out:

  • Albania
  • FYR Macedonia
  • Bulgaria
  • Ukraine
  • Slovenia

Norway's first 12 points of the year moves them up to sixth place, and closer to the back chasing Sweden. Serbia continue to gain ground too as Armenia close the chasm left by Sweden to 51 points. Eight points to Greece lifts them above Russia and Portugal into eigth place, whilst another good score for Turkey sees them edge up into the top 12. Good point hauls can be seen for France and Cyprus, both of whom had only one point each before this round of votes.

@Easily Nor

I am not against Biondo fans, byt I think they should support the song we choose, if they don't support it than they should go in Sweden

Gee Oh,why are you so against your country's entry this year? You have a great ballad with 2 charismatic singers that will fight for the grand-prix,so do not be so pessimist,please!!!And of course my country (Greece) will vote for Romania!!! And I agree with you about Sweden and Switzerland,but unfortunately diaspora will help the ukrainian crap to go to the final!!!

One more thing, Norway IS best this year,I they get their 12 pt.

Good job BIH!!! Altough I would'nt give any points to Cyprus 'cause i just don't like the song.Instead I would include Hungary.Or even Russia,not very impressive this year..a bleak copy of 2006!Serbia will get the "douze" just because all Bosnian Serbs will vote only for one country-Serbia,which is pathetic.

Wow, cyprus in Top 10!

Bosnia has never awarded a single point to Cyprus!

Also, 12 pts to Norway is a big surprise to me!

It's not fair!!!!!!!! Romania - so high in the Chart??!?!?!?! It should be bottom!!! Anyway, things won't be like that in the big night. I'm afraid Charlotte Perelli from Sweden, Paolo from Switzerland or Ukraine's Ani Lorak will be this year's Selma, Kate Ryan or Evridiki...Big expectations, but will all fail, even to pass the Semis. We'll see. Russia, Portugal and Serbia - no chance 2 win this year's ESC. Hope Armenia to win!...
