I don't know the blogger, I don't even know who she is. I don't even live in Australia. I visited her blog coincidentally & found this interesting assumption about highest voting percentage for Tahan.
It's just an opinion about the result, but I wanna post it because it contains many supporting evidence that may contribute to the outcome. You read & evaluate by yourself. No one can force you to trust an article if you find it unreasonably written.

However, the biggest question on everyone’s lips tonight was how Tahan made it so high up on the polls this week with an overwhelming 32.1% votes to save. The reasons for this are a little more complicated, one of which involves Big Brother themselves.
The blatant characterisation this year has been spoken about in all forms of social media, the general sentiment being disgust. It’s clear that Tim is painted as the villain, Ed as ‘Prince Charming’ and Tahan as the misunderstood underdog. Big Brother has done such an amazing job of convincing people that Tahan is an innocent victim in the house that even Leon Murray (the voice of Big Brother – [MENTION=25867]Leon[/MENTION]jmurray) feels for her as evidenced by his sympathetic tweets to Tahan’s boyfriend (@daffidreynolds).
Leon Murray: “Lucky man! #ThatIsAll”
David Reynolds: “when you talk to her next tell her I miss her… Please!”
Leon Murray: “Wish I could mate, but I have to ‘play fair’… Her resilience is a credit to her. I told her this on Thursday. Doing great.”
David Reynolds: “I understand, she is doing so awesome
) I wish the girls didn’t pick on her so much”
Leon Murray: “Me too. But remember: folks love an underdog.”
What Leon fails to realise, is that by commenting such things, he is subconsciously influencing those that reads his tweets. How did he, someone who has watched the house closely, forget all of Tahan’s misdoings? She spent her time bullying the other females in the house, and when the tables were turned (her friends were all evicted), she began to complain that she had no-one left in the house. Had she been something other than a vicious bully while she felt safely surrounded by troops in the earlier weeks, perhaps the remaining housemates would actually like her. Unfortunately for Tahan, women don’t often forget when someone has been bitchy towards and about them, so the feelings of dislike will not ‘just go away’. Similarly, Tahan’s boyfriend is emerging to be equally as vicious and delusional as his girl. After calling Mikkayla a cane-toad, I’m thinking that David and Tahan are a match made in heaven. Though his (attempted damage-control) tweet less than an hour later has to make you laugh considering the countless times that Tahan has mocked Mikkayla’s figure.

Not to forget how he speaks of Katie and Lucy…

Big Brother has done everything to exaggerate Tahan’s ‘weak’ and ‘sweet’ moments. Every housemate cries in the Diary Room, why are we being shown Tahan’s vulnerable side so often? Big Brother also posed the ‘conflict’ with the Sugar Sisters as a two-sided affair, accusing the sisters of giving as good as they got. Too bad the footage didn’t support such claims, they had no choice but to show countless clips of Tahan being nothing but a bully.
This characterisation on Big Brother’s behalf is only part one of the issue, we have to of-course consider her famous boyfriend, David Reynolds. His reach on Twitter is by far the most influential support of perhaps any other housemate; David is very loud and proud with his support of Tahan, airing his pro-Tahan sentiments to a whopping +9,300 followers. Even going as so far as promoting Tahan at his events, David now proudly sports his new helmet with #SAVETAHAN printed on the side.

Encouraging his followers to vote for his girlfriend, they proudly send him screenshots of their votes. One fan even recieved (what I consider to be) a quite rude response. After proudly telling David “done!” accompanied with a screenshot of his vote, he responded simply, “once!! : )” Wow, someone has a sense of entitlement, who does that remind you of?

Finally, we approach the most glaring reason for Tahan’s safety. This would be her boyfriend’s $275,000+ salary. Granted that this number was only as at 2012; given David’s recent and prominent sponsorship, his earnings are surely much higher. Below is a screenshot of David’s 2012 salary, you can view this on the V8 Supercars forum.

If you’re still having doubts that David’s career has been a huge advantage in keeping Tahan in the house, why not hear it from the man himself? Bragging about his newest sponsorship, David makes sure to include how much of a benefit this is to Tahan.

All of this is of course not against the rules, but it’s more than an unfair advantage that Tahan has over the others, and this cannot be denied. Ben’s fans simply could not compete with her boyfriend’s support, ultimately sealing his fate. This is the unsettling reality when Big Brother casts a V8 girlfriend, she’s always going to be multiple steps (or votes) ahead. That’s where the blame needs to be issued; not towards Tahan, not even towards her boyfriend, but to the responsible party – Big Brother.
UPDATE: Well this one’s just too far beyond the fairness of the game. In a recent ‘Twitter Takeover’, Tahan’s boyfriend David Reynolds was handed control of the official V8 Supercars twitter account (@V8Supercars) at such a pertinent time- the afternoon of the eviction.

Tweeting to over 45,500 followers, David couldn’t help but promote Tahan before he signed off.

Coinciding with Tahan’s highest votes to save yet, this is a ‘coincidence’ too big to ignore…
