EswarPrakash ji,

may be my comment came out wrong! I just meant that exit polls would simply "pollute" such a thread, as later on, one would be hard-pressed to understand what is result and what is exit-poll! Simply my personal opinion!

Beware of EXIT POLLS and Psephologists. These are timepass and they are for Mahatma Gandhi onlee. They would like to show congis above 140 so that till 16th congis and queen can keep up the brave face and pretense,

RajeshA-ji. Please, no apologies needed. Being new to the whole psephology thing, thought it would be good to track reliable surveys (i.e. the ones from muraliravi et.al) to understand the trend - mostly me being selfish to learn

I am not for banning booth wise poll numbers. If there is EVM magic, this is sure way to disguise it.!!

BTW, on exit polls, people who are intersted, check today's chanakya on twitter and they will telecast their exit poll on news 24.

Their claim to fame is that, they were the only exit poll to get the 2009 polls bang on. They predicted cong 205 and BJP 120.

CSDS will be out at 6:30 PM IST and so will today's chanakya.

In my humble opinion, we should have a different thread for exit polls. Just for 2019, and then also it will be unnecessary distraction on this thread.

TRS rep frankly said they would not join the NDA as they would not want to lose the MUSLIM vote who showered so much love on them.

You mean 57 seats in UP or 57% vote share for namo in Banaras(as per graph) or both?

Mort Walker · Post by **Mort Walker** » 12 May 2014 22:24

57 seats for BJP in all of UP. NAMO percentage vote share in Varanasi = Number of seats won from UP.

Amaresh Mishra is Hand party's e-goon whose primary job is to abuse any anti Hand forces in the social media space. He is the uncouth version of Diggy Raja in the etherspace. He is used to giving Ma Bhen gaalis on twitter. Best to leave him alone as he is filth and going close to him will only make you feel dirty.

This maybe OT but I had a compulsion to post. Just read that Rahul baba coined the following slogan late last year.
"poori roti khayenge, 100 din kaam karenge, dawaiee lenge aur Congress ko jitayenge"

.. and to think that he could have been the PM !!!

Wow, that is a very sad read, if indeed it is true. I do not trust Shekher Gupta, he probably belongs in the Jail for being a traitor (when he declared on TSP soil to 'fix' Indian govt) or swindling money from CWG, or being on the payroll of the Con....
But what if he says is even half right, somebody needs to fix Punjab fast. I don't know as a political party how much SAD or BJP contributes to it (but if they are in Drug business, then God help us), but this needs to be fixed!!
