Public voting representatives of participating countries

The viewers of the participating countries could be other members of the organization or other invited persons.
Each public voting member was invited by it's country, however when the participant was not able to do so, the public voting was assigned to each country as per the most possible compatability of points with the Jury Member.

On December 21, a day after the start of voting in the semi-finals, one of the members of the international jury Azam Ali Toor (from Pakistan) refused to vote and resigned his place as a jury member. The reason for this was Israel's participation in the competition. His place was taken by Nathan McGarry (from the United Kingdom). Another issue with Hungarian televoter has risen: due to different causes and internal clashes at the last minute the televoter refused to vote and was replaced.

Later, when the Grand Final has started on December 27, Chinese allocated televoter has requested to swap the country with another one since she is living in Taipei, not China and represent different country that always being mistaken by public she didn't wanted to. Unfortunately this request was not possible to get sorted out and the televoter has been replaced accordingly.

This was the first season for the participation of viewers from Azerbaijan, Brazil, Sudan, Turkey and the United States.
