Election Discussions - National, State etc

[abhijit]

BJP is completely finished in karnataka. It should forget 2019.

[Mort Walker]

Even Smita Prakash, jounalist, who normally doesn't show her leaning to any party on twitter is making fun of pappu. If people are not afraid of congress coming back to power, they would openly spit on their face. Bas ek aur dakka do - in 2019 and 2024, the c system will collapse.

Everyone from east to west to north to south ALL know about pappu and his shenanigans. There is no way on earth they will vote for INC with him as the face of the party. Best for Raul, Sonia and family to retire peacefully.

Only 222. 112 needed. Election did not take place in 2 constituencies.

[Rupesh]

Siddhu lost from Chamundeshwari.

[chetak]

We're past the point now where the INC combined with everyone else can not form a government.

Hope that you are right.

These are mostly leads and the situation is still fluid.

BJP now shout through the roof every day through all they got that congress tried to divide hindu. Unapologetically, consistently until 2019 is over. This was monumental blunder and sin. Make them pay. Do it now.

That seems to be the trend. From 99 earlier to now 114.

True, but not changing drastically and the trend is clear as BJP is nearing 48% of vote share.

[abhijit]

No chance BJP coming to power.

[hanumadu]

Badami is close. Hope Siddu loses here too.

[KL Dubey]

BJP has crossed the 112 mark on our own.

Wokay...my prediction of 115-120 was pretty much spot on. I was watching multiple things including the 5forty3 MAPI tracker.

As I said, Braveen Badil got the trend right but was too conservative.

And oh, "Chandranna" and Uddhav must be taking a shyte together today.

I would say work hard by Modi govt to make sure 2019 is a solid 2/3 majority in both houses. Repeal Article 370 and institute UCC. We wanted that back in 2014 and today and in 2019.

Hyd Karnataka and Mumbai Karnataka were close between BJP and Congress earlier in the morning. Now BJP clearly pulling away from congress in these regions.
