AGT 2025 Semifinals: Poll Results and Predictions

America’s Got Talent 2025 Semifinal poll results and prediction – Which SIX acts will advance to the Finale?

America’s Got Talent season 20 reaches its live Semifinal results show tonight (September 17). This season’s live rounds span six weeks: four weeks of Quarterfinal performances featuring 44 contestants, followed by a single week of Semifinals and the grand Finale. Tonight’s results will determine which six acts from Tuesday’s semifinal performances move on to next week’s finale.

With the judges’ Golden Buzzers no longer in play, the decision rests with the viewing audience. After the semifinal performances aired, fans cast their votes in the polls. Below are the poll outcomes and a reasoned prediction of who is most likely to advance based on fan support and performance momentum.

The poll for Favorite Act shows LightWire leading with a strong share of the vote, followed by singer Jessica Sanchez and magician Zak Mirz. The remainder of the field trails by single-digit percentages. These poll numbers reflect fan enthusiasm but do not guarantee final results, since live voting and judges’ influence can still shift outcomes on the results show.

Based on the poll totals and the relative popularity of each act, the most voted-for acts and the projected qualifiers are listed below. This prediction is an informed but unscientific projection intended to summarize fan sentiment and likely outcomes.

Prediction

Prediction (unscientific): While poll results provide a snapshot of fan preference, live voting patterns and the results show dynamic can produce surprises. That said, the strongest contenders on the night of the semifinal were LightWire, Jessica Sanchez, Zak Mirz, Jourdan Blue, Chris Turner, and TTBoys. Given their poll momentum, stage presence, and audience connection, my projection is that these six acts will advance to the Finale: LightWire, Jessica Sanchez, Jourdan Blue, Chris Turner, Bay Melnick Virgolino, and TTBoys.
