Bulgaria’s Dara with “Bangaranga” has surged to an overwhelming market lead after dominating both the official audience poll and press poll for the second semi-final, reflecting strong jury and televote momentum built during the Vienna rehearsals. The upbeat track’s cohesive staging and vocal strength have aligned with historical patterns where standout openers in semis convert poll leads into decisive points totals. Australia’s Delta Goodrem remains the clearest challenger on the back of solid mid-tier positioning, yet trails significantly in recent voting simulations. Romania, Ukraine and the rest sit far behind, with no late breakthroughs reported to shift the tight qualification window. The semi-final outcome locks in within days, leaving little room for further movement.
