User blog:ProfessorTofty/Harry Potter Wiki - Be My Valentine

A couple days before Valentine's Day, the Harry Potter Wiki posted a poll to determine who you'd like be your Valentine. The results are now in, and can be viewed at our poll archive.

Of course, in looking back, there was one glaring omission from the poll, and that was Ginny Weasley. I'm sure there's many guys out there that would want her to be their Valentine, but I guess there's always next year.

Looking at the results for male characters, it would seem that many of our readers have a taste for bad boys. Draco Malfoy was the top scorer, earning nearly 20% of the total poll vote. Severus Snape and Lord Voldemort combined also managed to pull in over 200 votes. Not that Harry Potter and Ronald Weasley didn't have their fans also, with Harry pulling in over 400 votes, and Ron over 300. Gilderoy Lockhart, whom we might call the prince of Valentine's day, was by far the least popular choice, with only 20 votes.

On the female side, Hermione Granger was the runaway winner, with over 700 votes and over 25% of the total poll vote. She was nearly as popular as the other two members of the Trio combined. Coming in a distant second was Luna Lovegood at just over 10% of the vote, with Bellatrix Lestrange in the show position. Molly Weasley was the least popular choice, with only 18 total votes.

The new poll question asks what character you're most interested in seeing more information about as Pottermore covers Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban. So get voting!
