Voting
Main article: Voting in the Roosian Song Festival Throughout the contest's history, voting has remained relatively constant. The current system, where 3-member juries and a televote each account for half a region's vote, and are combined to make a 7-5-3-2-1 vote, was introduced in 2015. The 7, 5, 3-1 system has been utilised since 1973, after a tie between Coal Coast and Panem the previous year.
