This is not the first time that Time Magazine has received such widespread voting. In 2012, the North Korean leader Kim Jong Un, received over five million votes. What�s amusing is, most of Kim Jong Un�s admirers were residents of his own country, which remains isolated from the World Wide Web, giving them no access to the Time Magazine�s website.
This year, Narendra Modi is leading the Time Magazine�s �Person of the Year� poll. He�s followed by Arvind Kejriwal. Both Indian politicians are most likely driving other contenders crazy as there�s no way to match up to both of them.
In 2012, an internet forum named 4Chan �hacked� poll results to give Kim Jong Un an unprecedented lead. Will we see a similar trend this year as well?
Time Magazine doesn�t always consider the poll results when naming the �Person of the Year.” The person is always picked by its editors.
