The final score is split between the public vote and a panel of judges from every country. The votes you see from the presenters are the judges votes, then the televotes are added on at the end in reverse order, ending with the one who got the most votes from the public.

That's in the final, in the semi-finals they just say who goes in the finals and then the scores are posted online after the final.

But the public vote can have a huge sway on these things toward the end on Saturday. The juries or whatever they are called are between a rock in a hard place. Their vote is shown country by country weighted like 1 to 12 and many countries broadcasters will be afraid of looking antisemitic compared to a potential tidal wave in the public vote.

yeah, usually the jury vote is more biased than the public vote, like the exact opposite of what they are supposed to be
