What about the juries?

The juries only voted in the final so the only way to work out the jury effect is to take the result from the semi-finals and times by two. The first number in brakets is their position in the final (once we take out the big 4 + Russia) and the second brakets is their semi-final plus their score.

Here we can see the televoting on it's own for both semi-finals results in the same top 4, albeit in a different order. Sweden and Malta would have done better without the jury vote surprisingly. I would have thought they'd benefit from the jury vote. The two countries that qualified from the semi-finals by the jury vote were Finland and Croatia. In the final Croatia finished in 18th place and Finland finished in last place.

1 (1). Norway - 402 (SF2: 201)
2 (3). Azerbaijan - 360 (SF2: 180)
3 (2) Iceland - 348 (SF1: 174)
4 (4). Turkey - 344 (SF1: 172)
5 (7). Bosnia & Herzegovina - 250 (125)
6 (5). Estonia - 230 (SF2: 115)
7 (6). Greece - 220 (SF2: 110)
8 (21). Sweden - 210 (SF1: 105)
9 (12). Moldova - 218 (SF2: 106)
10. (8). Armenia - 198 (SF1: 99)
11 (18). Malta - 172 (SF1: 86)
12. (9). Ukraine - 160 (SF2: 80)
13 (12). Israel - 150 (SF1: 75)
14. (13). Albania - 146 (SF2: 73)
15. Portugal - 114 (SF1: 57)
Denmark - 138 (SF2: 69)
Romania - 134 (SF1: 67)
Lithuania - 132 (SF2: 66)
Serbia 120 (SF2: 60)*
FYR Macedonia 90 (SF1: 45)*


Semi-final jury results

Finland - 84 (SF1: 84) -* FYR Macedonia would have qualified on televote alone.
Croatia - 66 (SF2: 66) -* Serbia would have qualified on televote alone.
