Oct 26 forecast

Q favors Jackson Olson being eliminated before Oct 28 because the Oct. 27 double elimination follows Olson's tie for the lowest judges' score.

The question turns on one night. Dancing with the Stars season 35 has eliminated six couples since mid-September and Jackson Olson is not among them, and a Week 6 twist on Oct. 20 sent nobody home at all, so all ten remaining celebrities carried into Horror Movie Night on Oct. 27. That episode carries a double elimination and is the last opportunity for an elimination to be declared before the Oct. 28 cutoff, which means two of ten couples leave. Jackson Olson's position is exposed rather than comfortable: the Dedication Night quickstep scored 32 out of 40, level with Connor Wood, Tatyana Ali and Tyler Cameron for the lowest mark of the remaining field. Judges' scores are only part of the mechanism. Jackson Olson has now cleared every elimination night of the season, which points to an audience base that does not appear in the scores, and a double cut removes only two of ten couples. The safest reading is that Jackson Olson is one of the likelier candidates for the cut without being the obvious choice, because the bottom of the leaderboard is crowded and the vote has repeatedly protected Olson. Markets currently treat an Olson elimination before the deadline as somewhat more likely than not, and the difference with this forecast rests mainly on how heavily Olson's share of the lowest judges' score weighs against a fan vote that has never yet put Olson at risk.

Points to YES

Two couples leave on the only episode before the Oct. 28 cutoff, doubling the number of slots Jackson Olson can fall into.
The Oct. 27, 2026 episode of Dancing with the Stars season 35 will include a double elimination, as reported Oct. 22, 2026.
Jackson Olson finished Dedication Night in a four-way tie for the lowest judges' score among the ten remaining couples, so the audience vote must lift Olson clear of the cut.
On Dedication Night, aired Oct. 20, 2026, Jackson Olson scored 32/40, level with Connor Wood, Tatyana Ali and Tyler Cameron for the lowest score of the night.

Points to NO

Jackson Olson has survived every elimination night of the season, a record that implies an audience base larger than the judges' scores suggest.
Six celebrities and their partners had been eliminated since the Sept. 15, 2026 premiere, and Jackson Olson was not among them as of Oct. 25, 2026.
Only two of the ten remaining couples leave on Oct. 27, so most of the field survives the double cut.
As of Oct. 25, 2026, ten celebrities remained in the season 35 competition, with Jackson Olson and Emma Slater among them.
