Who won The X Factor season 2 tonight may very well come down to country fans versus the tweens when the final votes are announced. Teen powerhouse Carly Rose Sonenclar of Team Britney Spears has been a frontrunner all season long and her supporters are extremely rabid. A strong majority of them are also young fans with a willingness to spend hours getting in as many votes as they can manage for their favorite singer. Even with her strong fan base, high praise from the judges and undeniable talent, however, Carly Rose Sonenclar could very likely end up in second place on The X Factor results show for the season 2 finale.
Carly Rose Sonenclar appeals to the younger generation and the adoring Mom types out there who love how precocious she is. Country crooner Tate Stevens of Team L. A. Reid, however, has the older generation of viewers and an endless stream of country music lovers from all over to draw from. Not only is Tate Stevens wonderfully talented, he has a great story and, seemingly, a solid gold heart to back up his diamond-in-the-rough vocals. He almost certainly has the powerful Southern American voting block in the bag and they are a true force to be reckoned with. He could quite easily emerge as The X Factor winner for season 2.
Unfortunately for Fifth Harmony of Team Simon Cowell, they are pretty much already doomed to earn third place going into The X Factor finale show tonight. Carly Rose Sonenclar and Tate Stevens have been trading first and second place in the vote ranking for weeks. Fifth Harmony hasn’t even come close to achieving that kind of support from the viewers. They are, frankly, lucky to have even made it to The X Factor season 2 finale at all. That doesn’t mean they won’t make any contribution tonight though. In fact, they could end up very well end up stealing just enough votes from Carly Rose Sonenclar to put Tate Stevens over the edge for the win.
If I had to place a bet on who will emerge as The X Factor 2012 winner for season 2, I would have to give a slight edge tonight to Tate Stevens. While Carly Rose Sonenclar seemed to be destined to win just a few weeks ago, she may have peaked too soon. I think the country fans will give Tate Stevens the bump he needs to beat her in the end.
