Poll of the week - Fans surprised at Daughtry snub

Although it appeared that IDOL LIVE readers were most shocked at the fact that Carrie Underwood's album Carnival Ride failed to receive a nomination for Best Country Album for the majority of the duration of this past week's poll, it appears some Daughtry fans wanted to give their two cents before the poll closed.

And so the final results of the poll asking readers what surprised them the most about the 51st Grammy Award nominations regarding Idol-related noms, the fact that Daughtry did not receive a single nomination received 76 votes (36%). Next was the fact that Carnival Ride did not get a nom for Country Album, with 68 readers (or 32%) finding that to be the most surprising development.

33 votes (15%) were cast representing disbelief that Jordin Sparks did not get a nomination for Best New Artist (but the Jonas Brothers did), and 17 people were surprised by nothing.

In this week's poll of the week, readers are asked to vote on what is their favorite 2008 Idol Christmas release, either album or single. You will have exactly one week to vote.

Jordin wasn't nominated for New Artist 33 (15%)
Carrie's 'Carnival Ride' wasn't nominated for Country Album 68 (32%)
Jennifer received four nominations 10 (4%)
Daughtry didn't receive a nomination 76 (36%)
Carrie's "Last Name" was nominated for Female Country Vocal instead of "Just a Dream" 4 (1%)
Nothing surprised me 17 (8%)

Total votes: 208
