It is basically the luck of the draw, not where people voted for the person to win. Good Luck to Everyone who entered no matter who you are !

If you read the rules you will not that they have the right to place a bunch of random people and pick from them. Besides the million or so entries.I have never seen one of these shows pull up in front of a home like mine. That being a rual, not so upper middle class home. One that has dirt bike and go-cart parts scattered across the front. I just wont to go on the record that if I should win please surprise me at my work, I would just die if America saw my boys mess. I will continue to dream my dream and hope I am chosen, it would be such a life changing event, from renter to home owner Wow! Thanks for the dream and o yea Pick me, pretty please!!!!

It shocks and offends me at all of the rude accusations and comments, when this is a fair and honest RANDOM DRAWING... my grandparents entered for ten years and never thought they'd win in a million years. It was truly a blessing and HGTV was so good to them throughout the experience. I saw the dream home in person, it was beautiful and I could only dream of living in Sonoma one day. (Our family was in one of the videos, I was one of the grandkids on the porch, tehe) God has truly blessed our entire family from this experience, and thanks to Him my grandparents are gong to live a financially comfortable, fulfilling life and accomplish everything they desire; they are the most deserving people I know, and we are all deeply grateful and are all overjoyed from the experience. Thank you to all of the positive bloggers, and shame on the negative ones that claim HGTV is rigged. Not so people, not so!
