Help Katarina Rodriguez secure a semifinals spot at Miss Intercontinental
Katarina Rodriguez's chances of making it to the semifinals of the Miss Intercontinental pageant in January might be in the hands of her supporters and fans from all over the world.
The website The Great Pageant Community has set up an online poll for people to vote for their favorite contestant.
Katarina posted the voting mechanics on Instagram, revealing how her fans can help bring her a step closer to the crown.
"Ito na Philippines!" she wrote. "[Y]ou can help me secure a spot as a semi-finalist for the pageant by voting for Philippines!"

As of this writing, the Philippines is currently at number 4 with 27,578 votes, after Brazil, Indonesia and Venezuela.
There is no limit to placing votes on the poll, which closes at midnight January 24.
The beauty queen with the most number of votes will advance to the semifinals and receive the title "TGPC People’s Choice."
The pre-pageant activities will start on January 10, while the coronation event will be held at the Sunrise Grand Select Crystal Bay in Egypt on January 24.
Katarina is the last Binibini to compete in this year's pageant season.
Nelda Ibe finished first runner-up at Miss Globe, Elizabeth Clenci second-runner up at Miss Grand International, and Mariel de Leon bowed out early in the Miss International pageant in Japan.
