The European Broadcasting Union investigated and reduced the maximum votes per viewer to ten, warning Israels team for promoting excessive voting. Despite efforts to keep politics out, Eurovisions song contest continues to be entangled in geopolitical controversies. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
