X FACTOR Adds Twitter Voting Option for Next Week's Competition

Fox has announced that fans of THE X FACTOR may now vote for their favorite acts using 5 different options, including Twitter.

Even though 5 acts were eliminated tonight, it will be the last time the judges kick anyone out and starting next week (Wednesday, Nov. 2, 8/7c) America will decide who stays or goes.

Fox is giving fans a handful of ways to cast their votes for their favorite 12 finalists. And they are...

1) PHONE: You can vote via calling a toll-free phone number. Each act will be assigned their own toll-free number, which will appear on screen after their performance.

2) TEXT: You can vote via Verizon SMS/text voting. Each act will be assigned their own four-digit short code, which will appear on screen after their performance.

3) ONLINE: If you have a Facebook account, you can vote online at www.TheXFactorUSA.com and follow the instructions there.

4) TWITTER: You can vote by sending a Direct Message containing the number of the act for whom you wish to vote via Twitter if you follow @TheXFactorUSA. Tweets do NOT count. The number assigned to each act is based on order in the performance show each week, much like the toll-free and SMS voting methods. So, if you wish to vote for act number 1, send a Twitter Direct Message containing the number 1 to @TheXFactorUSA. Or, visit www.twitter.thexfactorusa.com and follow the instructions for how to Direct Message your Twitter vote(s).

5) MOBILE APP: If you are a Verizon subscriber with an Android device, you can vote via The Xtra Factor App. Download the app now! For Verizon Android tablets, you will need to log into a Facebook account. For Verizon Android handheld devices, you vote via SMS/text message. Beware: for the Verizon Android handheld device voting the short codes and keywords for the acts will be different to those shown on air, but that's the only thing different.

Voting opens five minutes before the end of every performance show and is open for two hours after the show ends in each time zone.

If you want to go crazy voting, direct SMS, SMS in-app, and telephone votes are unlimited. But online and Twitter votes are maxed out at 50 votes. 

Wednesday, November 2nd is when voting begins and on Thursday, November 3rd it will be the first of the results show, where the results will be revealed.
