In the end guess it comes down to a combination of factors. The androgyny probably helps. The strong motivations for Kurapika being there and working so hard. Easy to get behind someone trying to get justice for their dead family. Add in the principles and should be enough to pull well ahead of Gon. Of course in the end rationalizing choices in a popularity poll can be tricky since people are drawn to different types of characters.
