I love American Idol Polls, don’t you? We introduced an American Idol voting poll where you can vote for your favorite American Idol season 8 contestant, and the results of the poll so far show Adam Lambert is in the top spot to be the next American Idol.

The New York Post recently reported all-too-obvious predictions that the odds of Adam Lambert winning this season’s Idol competition and becoming the next American Idol have become so strong that those placing bets will only receive 80 cents on every dollar placed in Adam’s direction.

“The talent show has seen some heavy favorites in the past but nothing quite like Lambert — who is running away from the field with seven other performers still in the running. Lambert has been out of the top spot only once so far in competition — when he stumbled during country music week — and briefly gave the betting lead to Danny Gokey. Gokey this week is holding steady as the second pick, with most bookmakers listing him at 5-to-2. Kris Allen is moving up among “Idol” bettors and is now the show’s No. 3 pick at around 7-to-1. Allison Iraheta had been the third pick for several weeks, but — after a lackluster performance last week — fell to the middle of the pack.”

American Idol 2009 is slowly but surely getting closer to deciding who will be the next American Idol, and even though the NYP article was posted prior to the American Idol Top 8 songs from the year you were born theme with Scott McIntyre being voted off, polls and vote results continue to show Adam Lambert is the one to beat in this competition.
