The six week “Pabandom Iš Naujo” selection process is over after tonight’s grand final, where favourite Monika Liu came out victorious with the song “Sentimentai”. It will be the first fully Lithuanian song in Eurovision since 1999!
The results were decided with a 50/50 split between the professional jury and the Lithuanian public. The winner in each category gets 12 points, second gets 10, and 3rd-8th get 8-3 points, respectively. The act with the most points wins. Ties are broken by who has the higher jury placing.
