But it maintains that voting did not close before all acts had been performed.
โVoting in Eurovision: Australia Decides closed when Myf and Joel announced โStop voting nowโ โ approximately 20 minutes after the last song at 2245 AEDT,โ a spokesperson told TV Tonight.
โThere was an error in the on-screen graphic that stated voting closed at approximately 2145 AEDT โ the on-screen graphic should have said 2245 AEDT.โ
The error was not confined to a Saturday night typo, with earlier advice from SBS last week also indicating a 9:45 pm AEDT deadline.
On social media confused viewers were telling SBS the information on the screen was incorrect. Some indicated their votes had not been received.
But SBS said, โThe public vote was administered and audited by Ansible, who confirmed all eligible voters throughout the official voting period were accounted for.โ
