This is significant for two reasons:
Initial projections had Carpenter winning easily, and Scott has a history of aggressively bundling his albums, tactics that have drawn the ire of other artists like Nicki Minaj.
This is likely why there has been no official declaration of who finished first.
Do you think the results will stand after all the sales are scrutinized?
