 There were actually two winners this year, both Sweden and France  finished on the same place with 146 points. However following the  embarrassment of 1969 when there were four winners, the rules now  clearly say there can only be one winner. The voting coordinator  Frank Naeff examined what points the countries had received to  decide the winner. Both France and Sweden had received four "12  points", however Sweden had received more "10 points" than France  and was declared the winner.
