Liverpool star Mohamed Salah has smashed the pubblic votes for Ballon d'Or with nearly half of the votes for hours, more than Lionel Messi, Cristiano Ronaldo and Luka Modric. But now, the Barcelona captain has taken the lead.
Over 461,000 votes have been cast by members of the public on the official Ballon d'Or website for who should win the 2018 award.
Mohamed Salah is leading the poll with 41% of the vote until now (15:49 CET), Lionel Messi is second with 39%, Cristiano Ronaldo sits third with 7%.

Oh ok...its public Vote But as a Liverpool fan l think Salah should be in top three not on top of this list. He played exceptional last season, if Liverpool had won The UCL, then he deserves it but because it didn't happen either Ronaldo(75%sure) or Messi should win Salah....please improve this season to be recognized beyond..... Salah my King.....Hope to see you at your best soon

If really this award is based on individual brilliance, not politics, Messi should win the ballon d'Or award hands down... Messi won the following. La liga Copa del rey Spanish Super Cup European Golden Boot Pichichi La liga best player, with most assists, most dribbles, most chance created. Won man of the match awards more than any other player in European top 5 leagues. Single handedly took Argentina to WC.

lol, Africans are voting, not the world public please. Sallah himself knows his master. The problem is that Sallah knows he's been overrated and the burden of that is telling on his performance recently so the earlier Africans understands this and allow him grow the better for the player, his team and the continent. He's a baby before Messi so let's not sectionalize this.

If the Ballon dor is going to Ronaldo, I feel it's better you give it to Modric, Modric also won the Champions league, helped his team to the finals of world cup, Cristiano did not do enough last year, he barely featured for Madrid in Liga, no appearances in Copa Del Rey & he failed to score in Semis or Finals, & neither did Portugal fair well in World cup.
