I think that Sansa Stark gets bumped off and Arya Stark sits on the throne.
We shall see soon enough, I think anything can happen in the next two episodes. I wouldn't under estimate Sansa though. How ‘Game of Thrones’ just set up Sansa to take out Cersei.
If you saw the last episode, The Last Of The Starks or even the first "Game of Thrones" season, Arya has repeatedly been committed to being true to herself. She has said repeatedly she doesn't see herself as a Lady (never mind a Queen). She realizes her skills lie elsewhere and I think she has some unfinished business. Plus, she is third in line after Bran and Sansa among the Starks and there are eight other Great Houses to consider for the Iron Throne.

This poll suggestion has been converted from a character to a image driven poll: https://www.imdb.com/list/ls047514777/
The poll header update posted above still needs to be completed to have an image hyperlink, instead of linking to the old character list which is non-existent.

I replaced the link.
You are right it shouldn't require any extra explanation. Simply, the
ability to read with understanding. I did tweak the question a bit to be
clearer. I don't know of a better term to use to describe non-Anglo
countries. I am open to better term to use to describe the sphere of
countries without current or former British ties.
The question clearly states it is about Oscar-nominated Best Picture movies from non-Anglo countries that usually garner 98.4% of all the nominations. It even spells out which countries those are and how they are determined. It doesn't require further explanation or additional posts.
Which of these movies, whose production companies are based in non-Anglo* countries is your favorite Oscar Best Picture nominee? * non-English speaking country not descended from the British Isles
Anglo Countries: Europe (British Isles: U.K., Ireland, Scotland, etc.), Americas (U.S.A., Canada, Bahamas, Barbados. Belize, Jamaica, Trinidad and Tobago, etc), Australasia (Australia, New Zealand) and Africa (South Africa, etc) from the 195 total World Countries
It clearly is not about race when it equally excludes or includes all people from a given country, regardless of race. Plus, Anglosphere countries run a gamut from 00.7% white Trinidad & Tobago to 93.6% white Ireland and compositions of everything in between. Additional, I don't how you can think it is race-based when 9 out of the 11 countries with the largest white populations are included:
Russia, 
Brazil, 
Germany, 
France, 
Italy, 
Spain, 
Mexico, 
Ukraine, and 
Argentina. Likewise, the entire very white European continent is included except for the United Kingdom and Ireland.

Comment is on the wrong poll suggestion.!
It just flat looks and sounds racist.
Why won't you just change it.
I said the same thing you said without Anglo in it.
What's wrong with that?
Simply, the ability to read with understandingTherein lies the problem. A lot of people don't have the intelligence level to understand what you "Mean"
