This is what they said over at Wetpaint about this poll;
Let’s run through some quick similarities. Both are towering, blonde gentlemen of foreign descent (Viking stock, to be exact). Klaus was one of the first vampires to ever be created, while Eric is generally one of the older vampires in the True Blood universe. As menacing as they both seem at first, Klaus and Eric turn into big softies when around certain women in their lives; Klaus pines for novice vampire Caroline (Candice Accola), while Eric is in love with telepathic waitress Sookie Stackhouse (Anna Paquin)
True, they were both Vikings, are both vampires, and show a gentler, kinder side to their lady loves, but that’s where the similarities end, IMO. I know we’re up against the TVD fandom, but don’t lose hope. Not as many in their fandom love Klaus as much as you-know-who (he shall remain nameless). 
Go ahead and vote! We would love to see the TRUE Viking vampire win!
Cast your vote for Eric Northman – THE hottest ancient vampire here!
Remember…listen to Eric!
Thanks Eric & Sookie Lovers!
No one mess w/ the 1,000 yrs old & get away w/ it.

Klaus is still way too popular, that’s why they won’t get rid of him. I for one can’t stand that character, he’s nothing like Eric at all. This is no contest.
Ugh, those Vampire Diaries fans can never just let us have one. It’s bad enough he always loses against Damon.
This should be no competition Eric Is the Hotter vampire .
ok I still can’t believe they made Klaus a viking – don’t they have any ideas of their own? Isn’t he an original vampire? so vampires in that show are only 1000 years old? That’s kind of lame. I’m really sick of TB going up against TVD, you cannot compare the shows, and everyone else is probably really sick of me moaning about it
I’m going to try my best to ignore these posts from now on lol.
He’s really not a Viking, I didn’t realize they were British. They’re probably just using that for this poll because he’s as old as Eric is.
I thought Klaus said they were Vikings when the Originals were first introduced? And their family decided to settle near Mystic Falls…but I agree they aren’t very original. Lol
Could be, but I rarely pay attention to him…lol! Still, we know who the real Viking is;)
No worries Evie!
If you think THAT is lame…you should read TVD books! LMAO
I read the original books and it’s a good thing I don’t remember anything…lol!
Well as of this morning, Klaus is ahead again. I, too, like Evie are sick of these polls, TB never wins against TVD and it just upsets me to no end, so I am going to ignore these polls too. Eric is was/will and always will be the best Vampire on TV above all others ever in my mind!!
Klaus is ahead by a freaking point. And you can vote more than one time… Just saying…
Keep voting everyone!! Eric is ahead by less than 1 point, but if we keep at it, maybe we can finally get to first for a change!!!!!
