If you thought the results for People'sSexiest Man Alive were contentious,transgeneros videos sex buckle your seat belts for the preliminary results of TIME's'Person of the Year' reader poll, which includes the good, the bad, and the Trump.
On Friday, TIMEreleased their annual poll, featuring contestants from The Pope to Ariana Grande. Readers can vote on who is the "person (or people) who has had the most influence over the news in the last 12 months." And this year, some surprising contestants have taken the lead.
SEE ALSO: Time names Trump person of the year and Twitter has a lot to sayAs of this writing, the top vote-getters, with 7 percent each, respectively, are the #MeToo campaign (not a person but we're here for it) and Mayor of San Juan Carmen Yulín Cruz, who was an outspoken advocate for Puerto Ricans in the wake of Hurricane Maria.
Also, Taylor Swift. But come on, everyone knows The Swifties rally en force whenever their Queen is up for anything.
You can see the preliminary results here.
#MeToo, Yulín Cruz, and Swift are all beating out Donald Trump, who has 6 percent of the votes. The Dreamers — those children of immigrants who are protected (for now) under the "Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals" Act — are also tying our dear president for second, with 6 percent of the votes.

The #MeToo campaign, which TIME describes as a "social movement in response to widespread sexual harassment allegations," has gone global, opening up conversations about sexual assault in Hollywood, politics, and other industries by encouraging women to share their experiences of sexual harassment or assault. It's a fitting contestant against Donald Trump, a man who remains in power despite the dozen-plus allegations of sexual assault women have levied against him.
So too is Mayor Carmen Yulín Cruz, who passionately criticized what she saw as President Trump's inadequate job in helping Puerto Rico recover from Hurricane Maria damage. President Trump insisted he was doing a "great job" and had "fabulous reviews," and criticized Yulín Cruz for poor leadership and playing on divisive politics.
Meanwhile, it's been nearly two months since Hurricane Maria struck in late September/early October, and almost half of Puerto Ricans still don't have ready access to electricity or potable water.
Trump was TIME's Person of the Year for 2016. German Chancellor Angela Merkel got the totally meaningful honor in 2015.
If you feel passionately about who should receive TIME's award, you can vote here until the poll closes on December 3. TIMEtakes reader preference into consideration, but the decision ultimately rests with their editorial board (sorry, Swifties).
They'll make their final announcement on December 6. We'll just be over here counting down the hours and holding our breath.
