When voting ended at midnight on Thursday, Snooki held the lead by just 14 votes. Out of a total of 2330, the final tally was 1,172 for Snooki and 1,158 for Bieber.
If this were a U.S. federal election, we’d need a recount. But, hey, this isn’t Florida, and we’re not choosing the leader of the free world, thank goodness.
