Whether it's the inclusion of two popular Olympic athletes or the controversial addition of convicted felon Anna Delvey, ABC says commitment to its variety show is stronger than ever.

The September 24 episode that saw Delvey take home the "fashionista" and Beverly Hills, 90210's Tori Spelling received more than 14 million fan votes, the most votes for a single episode in the series' history.

That means more votes will be counted today than when NFL star Hines Ward and Kym Johnson won the most-watched Season 12 of 2011, when a whopping 22 million viewers tuned in. Voters can vote for which celebrities they want to keep via text message or at dwtsvote.abc.com.
