Voting History

The voting table below records whom each housemate voted to nominate on the diary room during his or her time in the House. The Head of Household vote (casted in front of the other housemates) automatically nominate one housemate from eviction. Then, the other housemates voting and if the vote is tied, the HOH breaks the tie (all this types of vote count for the total number of nominations received).

• Note 1: Extra surprise Housemates Marcos and Marielza entered on Day 4 and the public had to vote for one of them to be immune from nomination that week. They chose Marielza with 54%.

• Note 2: Marielza had to leave the House after a health problem.

• Note 3: Sammy won the final Power of Immunity competition. However, there was a twist (not known by the housemates) in which the winner, rather than immunize another housemate, would be immunized.
