Here is the first and last update that we will post for the ongoing “2016 Cover Guy of the Year” poll – Kapamilya heartthrobs Daniel Padilla and James Reid are both leading the race with more than 1 million votes each.

After Kathryn’s win in Covergirl of the Year yesterday, it looks like Daniel Padilla is all set to capture the “Cover Guy of the Year” title himself and it’s going to be his first time to do so. As of 6:45pm of December 24, the King of Hearts already garnered 1,428,642 total number of votes.

However, James Reid is not far behind and could potentially deliver an upset when we close the polls at 12 noon on December 26. Just like Daniel, the “Till I Met You” star also surpassed the 1 million mark.

Here are the current results of our social media polls as of 6:45pm of December 24, 2016:
