'Dancing With the Stars' Fans Are Confused by Technicality That Sent Matt James and Lindsay Arnold Home
'Len should not have gotten the final save'
"The judges were not 'undecided' until Len voted for Kenya. It was 2-1 for Matt. When [Len] voted for Kenya, making it 2-2 they should've just sent home the person who had the lowest amount. That would've been the FAIR way. Len should not have gotten the final save," one fan tweeted.

"Confused about the judges save. If Matt got 2 votes and Kenya got 1, how did Len's 1 vote save Kenya?? (Not that I think Matt deserved to stay over her just very confused)," one viewer wrote.

"What's the point of having us vote if Len has the final say anyways??? That was not a tie breaker! Len had no respect for Matt since the beginning and tonight it showed," one fan asked.

Matt James should have stayed. What the hell was that? #DWTS pic.twitter.com/TVLMf1wfbE
"On Tuesday's show, Matt & Lindsay had 2 votes & Kenya had 1 vote. All 3 judges were present on the show & Len's vote created a Tie & wasn't a tie-breaker. Matt & Lindsay should be brought back on the show," one fan wrote.

I enjoyed Matt and Lindsay, I wish they stayed. I don’t get how Len’s vote decides when Matt had more of the judges votes. That’s stupid #dwts

"Yes Matt James did get screwed - Someone said Len does not like Bachelor Nation cast always coming on the show- that is why he kept Kenya," one person wrote. It is true that the past two DWTS winners were Bachelorette stars. This will be the first season since 2018 without a Bachelor-related winner.

y’all really cannot do simple math. how could the vote be 2-1 with 4 judges it was 2-2. bruno and carrie picked matt and len and derek picked kenya. since len is the head judge his vote overrides the tie. #DWTS

"Why is everyone confused about Len's vote. If he voted Matt, then it would be 3-1. If he voted Kenya, its 2-2 but his vote is the deciding vote - so Kenya stays. Not complicated," one viewer who understood the situation noted.
