The rule on how to separate tied winners had been modified as late as in 1989. Before that, all juries were supposed to be called back and cast a new vote. Realising the amount of time that would take, it was decided to count the number of "12" and, if they also produced a tie, continue by countring "10", "8", "7" and so on for as far down as needed. The French claimed not to know about this new rule and accused the Swedes of cheating.

[edit] Tie Breaker

i) Sometime after this contest the tie-break rules changed and the first breaker became the number of countries that voted for the tied songs (and only after that, if necessary, the number of '12's (etc). This new rule would have given this contest to France (18 countries voted), and not Sweden (17 countries voted).

ii) There appears to have been some problem with Carola's performance (ultimate winner), with a dismissed suggestion that their performance should have been repeated ? (Sound system problem maybe ? Anyone know ?) Archzog 12:06, 18 May 2007 (UTC)
