Otherwise, those moderators could theoretically have to ring in quickly to get the primary supported contestant.

| − | In general, [[Phil Allen]] and [[Nadia Lorenzo]] never make the same supported female contestant as her primary pick at the same time.
| + | [[Lanise White]] and [[Ann Dwyar]] usually do not pick the same supported contestant, though this can mean that one of those moderators will choose a particular supported contestant. To alleviate the conflicts, either White or Dwyar must choose primary supported female contestant residing in the Milwaukee or Green Bay market, regardless of their records during the previous season. |

| |
| − | * Like with Ava Zinn and Holly Everman in the shared Indianapolis market, and unlike the aforementioned [[Lanise White]] and [[Kathy Roberts]] slot requirement that does not exist, for Ward and Jameson can choose any Vote for the Girls home pick slots, because Ward and Jameson are respectively from South Bend, Indiana and Joilet, Illinois. When both moderators have rung in for the same front-runner, one moderator will have the primary pick, while the other that rung in for the same front-runner will either get the secondary or Best of Worst pick.

| − | * Under current moderator rules, and in order to circumvent disputes with Jameson's purple team's competing moderators (Zinn, Alvaraz, Passalt, White, and Ray) and Ward's pink team moderators (Roberts, Rock, Tola, and Everman), it is necessary for both moderators to be given at least one prime supported female contestant in the Chicago primary market are or in states surrounding Illinois, regardless of the moderators' performances in the previous season.

On May 24, 2016, Team Ava & Kymberly became the first undefeated moderator in ''Vote for the Girls{{'}}'' history (with the three "Double Victories" on the ninth and tenth seasons of ''The Voice'', fifteenth season of ''American Idol'', and [[wikipedia:Paige van Zant|Paige van Zant]] clinching the female victory on the 22nd season of ''DWTS'' even though Van Zant was overall runner-up) and [[wikipedia:Alisan Porter|Alisan Porter]]'s win on the tenth season of ''The Voice'', Ava Zinn and Kymberly Alvaraz gained three advantages for the eighth season of ''Vote for the Girls''. This marked the first time Derek Hough, Lindsay Arnold, Witney Carson, and/or Allison Holker would not be supported by Zinn and Alvaraz for the 23rd season of ''DWTS,'' which would be chosen by the Kylie Dwyar or Holly Everman and Perri Johnson on the pink team, or chosen by Kathi and Karly Jameson or Janet Webb on the purple team.<ref>??</ref> This issue was rendered moot at the start of season 9 after Zinn ended the long-term relationship with Alvaraz (Alvaraz died in August 2017).

| − | * If Webb or Dwyar is declared the winning moderator, the site may take advantage of the opportunity by allowing BOTH Webb and/or Dwyar the option from the opposite winning moderator's team at the beginning of the following season. If Janet Webb is the winning moderator of Dancing with the Stars, Dwyar can possibly participate in the following season's DWTS.

| | | | |
| − | ====Karly Jameson and Cathryn Swaringen (Indianapolis)====
| + | * The slot requirement does not exist for Alvaraz and The Dwyars. Because Alvaraz and The Dwyars can choose any Vote for the Girls home pick slots unless claimed by Ava Zinn, because The Dwyars and Alvaraz are from Denver. |
| − | In general, [[Karly Jameson]] and [[Cathryn Swaringen]] never make the same supported female contestant as her primary pick at the same time.
| + | *As with the Zinn and Everman, Kymberly Alvaraz, Ann Dwyar and/or Kylie Dwyar cannot choose a female contestant as a primary pick in the same competition due to both Alvaraz and the Dwyar sisters' origin in Colorado. When both moderators have rung in for the same front-runner, one moderator will have the primary pick, while the other that rung in for the same front-runner will either get the secondary or Best of Worst pick. |
| − | | + | * Under current moderator rules, and in order to circumvent disputes with Alvaraz's purple team's competing moderators and the Dwyars' pink team moderators, it is necessary for both moderators to be given at least one prime supported female contestant in the Denver primary market are or in states surrounding Colorado, regardless of the moderators' performances in the previous season. |
| − | *Swaringen and Jameson can choose any Vote for the Girls home pick slots, because Swaringen and Jameson are respectively from Speedway, Indiana and Marion, Indiana.

| − | ** Starting in the web site's seventh season, there will be a number of times that Swaringen and Jameson have both primary picks from the Indianapolis markets in the competition with one moderator that rung in first and the other after. Whenever this happens, the exclusivity rule trumps the must-pick rule, resulting in a possible joint moderator victory for the site in the event should her supported female contestant win the competition.
| + | ** One conflict can be solved by the Dwyars or Alvaraz's Best of Worst pick while the other moderator gets the other's Best of Worst pick as a primary pick. The second conflict would have to be averted by either the Dwyars or Alvaraz taking a leave of absence. |
| − | * Under current moderator rules, and in order to circumvent disputes with Swaringen's pink team's competing moderators and Jameson's purple team's competing moderators, it is necessary for both moderators to be given at least one prime supported female contestant in Indiana, regardless of the moderators' performances in the previous season. These female contestants that are chosen by Swaringen and/or Jameson must reside in either the Indiana side of the Chicago, Evansville or Terre Haute markets (unless respectively chosen by Jacqui Fountaine, Jenna Monroe or Danni McClannahan), Fort Wayne and the Indiana side of the South Bend-Elkhart market (unless chosen by Ava Zinn, Alexandra Moffitt and/or Maribel Mort), the Ohio markets (Toledo, Dayton and Cincinnati, unless claimed by Donna & Tim Doogan), the Indiana side of the Louisville market (unless chosen by Sonia Donbar). By rule, when one of the moderators have chosen a female contestant as her primary pick, the other moderator cannot pick the same female contestant as her opposing team. | + | ***When Kymberly Alvaraz began the long-term relationship with Ava Zinn in 2015, Alvaraz became the de facto home moderator of all of Colorado and nearby Salt Lake City market, due to the Rocky Mountain's traditional status as a Dancing with the Stars hotbed, and a deal between NoSirGifts Fantasy Telvision Distribution, Zinn and Alvaraz became the exclusive home base DWTS pros Derek Hough, Witney Carson, Allison Holker, and Lindsay Arnold (all natives of the nearby Salt Lake City market) being mainstays on DWTS. This means both Alvaraz and Zinn will have at least one supported contestant on ''Dancing with the Stars,'' beginning in the spring of 2015; advertising within Studios 41 (where WTOR/WXXC's newscasts are produced) and 47 (where Vote for the Girls is taped) are also included in the deal. Additionally, both Zinn and Alvaraz will have whichever celebrity is paired with Derek Hough. In the seventh season, Team Ava & Kymberly earned their first "Double Victory" by default upon the unexpected withdraw of Tamar Braxton with [[wikipedia:Bindi Irwin|Bindi Irwin]] (partnered with Derek Hough) winning the 21st season.

| − | ** The only window that would be available for Swaringen/Jameson in that situation would be a primary pick from the state of Indiana. Therefore, a conflict is found due to eight moderators hailing from Indiana.

If Kymberly Alvaraz (with Ava Zinn) is the winning moderator of Dancing with the Stars, the Dwyars can possibly participate in the following season's DWTS. |
| − | ** One conflict can be solved due to Indianapolis and Fort Wayne being one of ''Vote for the Girls{{'}}'' strongest markets in the following markets:
| |
| − | ***Evansville-based moderator Jenna Monroe's Best of Worst pick while either Terre Haute-based Danni McClannahan or Swaringen/Jameson gets Monroe's best of worst pick as her primary pick.

| − | ***Fort Wayne-based moderators Ava Zinn, Alexandra Moffitt or Maribel Mort gets the primary pick while the other gets the Best of Worst pick.
| |
| − | ***Though formerly lived in Lafayette, North Carolina-based moderator Breeanna Sorensen's Best of Worst pick while the aforementioned Danni McClannahan, Fort Wayne-based moderators Ava Zinn, Alexandra Moffitt or Maribel Mort gets Sorensen's Best of Worst pick as her primary pick.

| − | ====Lanise McClannahan, Kylie Dwyar, Lydia Delagatto and Luka Runecraft (Milwaukee)====
| |
| − | [[Lanise McClannahan]], [[Luka Runecraft]], [[Lydia Delagatto]] and [[Kylie Dwyar]] usually do not pick the same supported contestant, though this can mean that one of those moderators will choose a particular supported contestant. To alleviate the conflicts, either McClannahan, Runecraft, Delagatto or Dwyar must choose primary supported female contestant residing in the Milwaukee or Green Bay market, regardless of their records during the previous season.
| |
| − | * The following exceptions have been granted to this policy:
| |
| − | **In the [[wikipedia:American Idol (season 14)|fourteenth season]] of [[wikipedia:American Idol|''American Idol'']], Lanise McClannahan (then Lanise White) chose Lovey James from Portland, Oregon as her primary Vote for the Girls pick as she rung in first due to the fact that Lovey James auditioned in front of the judges in Kansas City at the time and was praised by Lovey's fans, at the same time [[Rhonda Rhodes]] chose Lovey James as her Best of Worst pick as Rhodes' opposing purple team moderators at the time(Zinn & [[Kymberly Alvaraz]], [[Julia Passalt]], and [[Kendra Ray]]) rung in before Rhodes did.
| |
| − | ** Starting in the web site's seventh season, there were be a number of times that McClannahan and Dwyar have both primary picks from the Milwaukee and Green Bay markets in the competition with one moderator that rung in first and the other after. Whenever this happens, the exclusivity rule trumps the must-pick rule, resulting in a possible joint moderator victory for the site in the event should her supported female contestant win the competition.
| |
| − | * Under current moderator rules, and in order to circumvent disputes with Dwyar's (and later Runecraft/Delagatto's) pink team's competing moderators and McClannahan's purple team's competing moderators, it is necessary for both moderators to be given at least one prime supported female contestant in Wisconsin or in states surrounding Wisconsin, regardless of the moderators' performances in the previous season. These female contestants that are chosen by McClannahan and/or Dwyar must reside in either the Milwaukee, Green Bay, La Crosse/Eau Claire, Madison, Wausau/Rhinelander markets (unless it is claimed by Runecraft and Delagatto), or the Wisconsin side of the Minneapolis and/or Duluth markets, unless it is chosen by Rachael Passalt. By rule, when one of the moderators have chosen a female contestant as her primary pick, the other moderator cannot pick the same female contestant as her opposing team.
| |
| − | ** The only window that would be available for Dwyar or Runecraft in that situation would be a primary pick from the Milwaukee market, likewise with McClannahan in Green Bay. Therefore, a conflict is found in both cases. An example of this was Queen Hilma (then Andi & Alex Peot) on ''The Voice 9''.
| |
| − | * If McClannahan, Runecraft or Dwyar be declared the winning moderator, the site may take advantage of the opportunity by allowing all three the option from the opposite winning moderator's team at the beginning of the following season. If the Lanise McClannahan is the winning moderator of Dancing with the Stars, Kylie Dwyar can possibly participate in the following season's DWTS.
| |
| | | | |
| − | ====Ava Zinn, Alexandra Moffitt and Maribel Mort (Fort Wayne)====
| |
| − | In general, the site's creator and host [[Ava Zinn]], co-host [[Alexandra Moffitt]] and moderator [[Maribel Mort]] (as well as previously Mort's mother, Robyn, and longtime moderator [[Holly Everman]]) never make the same supported female contestant as her primary pick at the same time.
| |
| | | | |
| − | * The aforementioned [[Lanise White]] and [[Kylie Dwyar]] slot requirement does not exist for Zinn, Moffitt and Mort. Because Zinn, Mort and Moffitt can choose any Vote for the Girls home pick slots, because Zinn, Mort and Moffitt are respectively from Van Buren, Fort Wayne and Angola, Indiana.
| |
| − | *Zinn, Mort and Moffitt, unlike McClannahan and Dwyar cannot choose a female contestant as a primary pick in the same competition due to both the three residing in the Fort Wayne media market (although Zinn formerly resided in the Indianapolis market from 2010 to 2018). When both moderators have rung in for the same front-runner, one moderator will have the primary pick, while the other that rung in for the same front-runner will either get the secondary or Best of Worst pick.
| |
| − | * Under current moderator rules, and in order to circumvent disputes with Zinn's purple team's competing moderators and Moffitt/Mort's pink team moderators, it is necessary for both moderators to be given at least one prime supported female contestant in the Fort Wayne primary market are or in states surrounding Indiana, regardless of the moderators' performances in the previous season.
| |
| − | *By rule, when one of the moderators have chosen a female contestant as her primary pick, the other moderator cannot pick the same female contestant as her opposing team.
| |
| − | ** In the [[wikipedia:The Voice (U.S. season 3)|third season]] of [[wikipedia:The Voice (U.S. TV series)|''The Voice'']], Zinn chose [[wikipedia:Cassadee Pope|Cassadee Pope]] as her primary Team [[wikipedia:Blake Shelton|Blake]] pick at the same time Everman chose Michaela Paige. Since Paige was eliminated in the Top 12 that season, the must-vote rule trumped the exclusivity rule in this case, and with Everman now choosing Pope as her wild card pick, Ava Zinn became the winning moderator as Pope won that season.
| |
| − | ** In the [[wikipedia:The X Factor (U.S. season 3)|third season]] of [[wikipedia:The X Factor (U.S. TV series)|''The X Factor'']], Everman chose [[wikipedia:Alex & Sierra|Alex & Sierra]] as her primary pick at the same time Zinn chose RoXxy Montana. This marked the first time the web site had supported a male-female duo. After Zinn's remaining picks of [[wikipedia:Ellona Santiago|Ellona Santiago]] and Rion Paige was eliminated in the Top 6 that season, the must-vote rule trumped the exclusivity rule in this case, and with Zinn choosing Alex & Sierra as a Best of Worst pick, Holly Everman became the winning moderator as Alex & Sierra won that season.
| |
| − | **In the [[wikipedia:American Idol (season 14)|fourteenth season]] of [[wikipedia:American Idol|''American Idol'']], Everman chose Alexis Gomez from Dayton, Ohio as her primary Vote for the Girls pick as Dayton is closer to Muncie. Fans criticized Zinn for not choosing Gomez as a secondary pick as that went to [[Tracia Ward]] instead, despite Ward's home market at the time (South Bend) being roughly 170 miles from Dayton. Furthermore, Zinn had the right of first refusal as the founder and head moderator of the web site. This issue would be rendered moot when Hillary Matthewson returned to the moderator panel and joined Ward for the spring cycle of the seventh season.
| |
| − | **In the [[wikipedia:The Voice (U.S. season 13)|thirteenth season]] of ''The Voice'', Zinn chose [[Addison Agen]] as her home pick at the same time Alexandra Moffitt chose Chloe Kohanski. Moffitt "cross-flexed" Kohanski to Zinn, who would go on to become the winning moderator. The [[wikipedia:The Voice (U.S. season 14)|following season]], Moffitt chose [[Christiana Danielle]] as her home pick. Fans praised Zinn and Moffitt due to the fact Agen and Danielle both live in the Fort Wayne market. Zinn had the right of first refusal as the founder and head moderator of the web site and decided to cross-flex Danielle to Moffitt due to Zinn's [[Ava Zinn relocation to Fort Wayne, Indiana|relocation from Marion to Fort Wayne]].
