There's probably a large group of people who only voted via the ballot and not in any of those unofficial polls.
The ballot is just a suggestion box, just because something gets a huge number of votes doesn't mean it'll get picked (imagine if Shrek was the overall winner for example)
Does the ballot have some way of identifying whether you've voted already? If not then a small group of people will most likely spam the request page with a certain character to guarantee a certain character winning the most votes (think about Steve from Minecraft)
I'm neutral on K Rool (actually prefer the Snowmads as a main enemy than the Kremlings, Tropical Freeze is my favourite DKC game) but I wouldn't complain if he got in as good on the fans. That logic does reach its boundaries though when we start to consider joke characters like Steve (I'd much rather see Shrek than Steve in Smash).
@NintendoFan64: Actually, DLC characters are in the game, you just cant access them, and other people can use it online :v
I suppose I'm a bit biased though, as I hate how heavyweights play in this game (except for DK)
@Grumblevolcano: true, I wonder if nintendo just used the ballot as a sampling, rather as a serious thing, because it could be easily rigged. And yeah, I would prefer someone else from the DK series, but unsure who though.

But well... If he gets added, I don't really need to buy him, so I wouldn't care.
...I like you. This is something that people who don't like certain characters getting in need to remember: If you don't want the character in, than just don't buy it! There! Now that character will never be in your game! @Gridatttack I'd be lying if I said that wasn't one of the main reason I want him in, but there's also a couple others: lack of villain characters, he'd be fun to play as, and there is a disturbing lack of pirates in Smash...
It would have to be really serious for to NOT buy a character.

Mother 3 fan. It's an amazing game. 糸井さん、こんな素敵なゲームを作ってくれてありがとう!
Hitler maybe.....maybe.....jk (not like that would happen anyways : P), I'm fine with anything to be honest, just to get some more unique content and such, there is only a couple characters I want however I'm fine if they added a character if I know little about, I will try them out and see if they are fun to use, heck I even want some certain mii outfits so I can make some mii's I been wanting to make like boxing gear so I can make my Gabby Jay mii into a actual boxer instead of wearing the C Falcon outfit.
Im curious. Are there characters that you specifically would NOT buy?
I dunno, I'm about as much of a sheep when it comes to Smash Bros as everyone else.
But, for example, let's say K Rool or some other "meh I don't care" character gets released... While I wouldn't completely rule out purchasing them eventually (after all, it's not like I'm boycotting them or anything, and I may some day play with someone who wants to use them), I wouldn't go and buy them immediately. It would be a waste of my money since I don't particularly plan or want to play as them.
"He could use his crown as a boomerang, use his bludderbust to shoot out spiked-balls, ice, and it can even inhale things in. He could also turn invisible, use lighting to attack, make boulders rain from the ceiling, and fly around with the chopper thing he used in DKC3. So yeah. He would be VERY different from the other heavyweights."
I can't think of a reason of people wanting him other than a third DK character.
Didn't me and two other people already explain why people wanted him in on the previous page? You apparently didn't see it, so I'm going to recap why people want him in (again):
Another DK character, as you mentioned
Heavyweight
Villain
He would offer something unique and interesting to the roster.
He's crazy, a psychopath, a king, a mad scientist , and a pirate. That's perfect for Smash.
The only prop he ever had was on that lulz cartoon.
...
Are you serious or just being ignorant? I'm going to requote myself again:

The sad thing is, apparently K rool was winning the ballot in many surveys :/
Good, that means a lot of people want him in, and for good reasons. He isn't a bandwagon character or anything like that. All of his support is 100% honest.
It's your opinion that you don't want him in, and I'm not forcing you to want him in. But some of the things you said were flat out wrong, so I had to reply. (The only prop King K. has is from the DKC cartoon? What!?)
@CapeSmash:
You are taking this way to seriously lol. I just dont get the appeal, even with the points you made, which are just your opinions too :v (Minus the chance that he has to be an unique character)
If he does truly gets in somehow (face it, his chance died with the mii costume :>), I will first have to try and see how it plays, because Sakurai can make good stuff. Right now I am stating how I think of it, and there's no confirmation he is in, so I can state that :>
Oh, and the cartoon thing isperhaps the only thing where I sort of liked K rool, due to how silly it was in gerenal

The mii costume does not deconfirm anything. If it actually did then why are characters like Falcon, Samus, and Meta Knight in the game? You are just being waaaayyyy to hopeful that he won't get into the game. It's more likely that he will get into the game than not.
