Week 5 NDA

Good Participation with 30 folks. The median reduces to 259 but the mean is now 266. If we weigh each estimate by the confidence, then the weighted mean estimate is exactly 8) 272! Median confidence is high at 72, so there has been the expected tendency to narrow the range. If we believe in the wisdom of the crowd, then the most likely range is 260 to 280 which seems to be consistent with one stray twitter report regarding an exit poll leak.

I've been consistently feeling that the pre-poll NDA is headed to 230-240 seats. Whatever positive news comes out, is balanced by bad news of EVM magic, rigging in WB and UP, Sampath = Janpath, etc.

Turning a little pessimistic as the last 3 phases of Bihar are yielding 12/21, Andhra appears to be toward YSR (Jagan), and massive voter fraud in other states.

It is there. For week 6, using exit poll info is allowed. we will do it in 2 parts.. Pre exit-poll (currently active, assumed to be same as week 5 unless you make an active entry) and Post-exit poll after Monday 6 pm IST.

Oh i thought we ought to predict before the exit polls, that was part of the fun. If exit polls are allowed then it becomes a little "tainted" no?

Well, we have plenty of data from weeks 1 to 5 to know your judgments. Last week can be a bit different and contaminated .. that's ok. If people do want to give their inputs before exit polls that's fine too; at this point there's really not too much reason to shift from week 5 ratings. I am poll fatigued and am looking towards May 16.

So at this point, I am assuming that everyone's week 6 pre-exit poll ratings are the same as week 5. If not, post your mods here as SwamyG did. Anything after exit polls start can be labelled "Post Exit Polls".

Week 6 pre-exit poll

Saral 0 0 0 0 0 0 100

toning down a bit and banking on NDA to land above 280

300+ is a possibility and Chaanakya could be our winner.

mrkts were up smartly based on a "leaked" exit poll. Wonder who leaked it. In the meanwhile, John Dreze calls the Gujurat model a middling model. [Quite fair too, to be honest. I don't see anything great about the model based purely on ground truths. However, that doesn't make Modi any lesser / better]

-- this is brilliant. Some way by which we can cover how we take our judgments into consideration given new facts is good. that's as important as blindly judging estimates based on group think / bias.

[trick qn / food for thought: if our estimates are just on basis of our minds (aka bias) how good is the actual estimate / judgment? Wink]

Narayana Rao 6th week same as before.

I fee the rigging has taken some toll. But there is also increase in possible winnable seats and both cancelled out. Rigging will help only so much and mainly effective against an opponent not having equal power to ring like BJP in WB. Otherwise in placed like UP BJP will not allow wholesale rigging and will rig where ever they can. So now much advantage there.

Has anyone thought of the possibility of the BJP rigging? They have a lot at stake and if the other parties do it, why not the BJP too?

You need to have EC appointed by BJP for this to happen. BJP run states are still managed by CEC.

Week 6 [Pre Exit Poll] :

0 0 0 60 40 0 0


Changed from Week 5 which was 0 5 10 70 15 0 0.
1) Sensex rise
2) Namo not present in Varanasi during last 2-3 days before it goes to polls, shows the confidence.
3) Congi trying everything from raising Gujrat Coastal Security issue to EC raiding BJP's Varanasi office shows the desperation to stop Namo becoming PM and implicate him in something
4) Reports talking about NDA making inroads in states where they didn't even had a chance till few weeks back like WB, TN, Oddisa. If the reports are correct then NDA should do well in states where they are strong/ semi-strong.

Ok since exit polls are almost upon us time to move to post-exit polls shortly.

Week 6 pre-exit poll (last minute shivers)

Saral 0 0 0 0 20 60 20


from now on please add "post exit-polls" to your forecasts.
Bonus: Also include a specific number for NDA as your best guess.

Somehow, I got the vague number a few days back that NDA will get 268. UPA at 112. Lets see how it goes.

I will put it at 262-268 currently for NDA.
