I have reviewed thru most of the polls, Times Now has the lowest number for BJP/NDA amonst recognized groups.
The "intellectuals" are rapidly throwing the towels. Please check Sagarika's tweets for eg, advising how Congis never allowed state leaders (read dynasty demise).
Other "intellectuals" have started advising what Modi should and should not do.
No matter how you slice the cake, it is Modi Sarkar on 16th.

Dilbu, please do a dhoti shiber

Timesnow is revising numbers as we speak. Someone must have told them the bare truth.

In fact people can ask the other way round, how come only timesnow and no other channel has exclusive info on evm's in RJ.

+1 MuraliRavi-ji. Also, if anyone is going to rig polls, would it not be easier to do it in UP, or Bihar, or some state where it is harder to prove rigging? If Sampath is stupid enough to EVM magic Rajasthan results to the extent suggested by Times Now, then there will be a new decoration on the lamppost in front of 10 Janpath - the Dangling Sampath, it will be called.

The issue with these polls is, everyone will have some logic for their numbers unless someone says BJP gets 40/42 in WB. So even chanakya's numbers are plausible if u take their lower end bets.

Thats true. Well, what can i say. I just added the lower end of Chanakya's numbers in each state (so if they say in MP 26 +/- 3, i saying 23) for NDA. That sums up to 275 without SA/TG for the NDA.

Theoretically, it is possible for the BJP to get the number suggested by Chanakya/Times Now. But I am not so confident. 3 seats are definitely gone (Muslim majority), BJP is not contesting in 1 (an ally is), and 1 is completely tribal and BJP has never done well in the seat. So, out of the 9 seats where BJP is really in contest, it is winning 8. Possible, but not very likely. I would give a more pessimistic estimate of 5-6 for BJP.

chaanakya · Post by **chaanakya** » 12 May 2014 20:54

We will have plenty of time to analyse after 16th till the swearing in ceremony as to why this was a watershed election in India's Electoral History.
The Voting % has surpassed that of 1984. 10 crores additional voters. Higher turnout, Women , young professional poor , in short all strata of society in large number, pathetic UPA-2 , unemployment, inflation, rising prices, no economic growth and unimaginable corruption and NaMO mantra for development and growth. Very explosive mix for Tsunamo. The number predicted above 300 is possible only if one believes in Tsunamo.

We are witnessing making of Bharat's History. Truly Epochal.

Muppalla · Post by **Muppalla** » 12 May 2014 20:55

The Chanakya can happen!!! can happen!! can happen!!. As I always say, BJP number grow if they get max in UP,Bihar, MH. The Tsunami may have really hit there. That is why Chanakya has given such numbers. They are serious pollsters. Let us see. Again 5forty3 was saying same but they are having dhoti shivering to put it out like that and reducing the numbers where there is even a slight negativity.

Supratik · Post by **Supratik** » 12 May 2014 20:56

I think Chanakya nos are incorrect. I can't bring myself to believe those nos.

Further, there is confusion in AS, WB, TN and AP. Others are broadly showing similar trends. Some concern about WB as ABP is showing higher votes for left but higher seats for TMC with BJP at 13%. The return of the left is a nightmare.

Singha-ji, from what I know, it is more of a reflection of the fact there is no entrenchment of the 3rd options in that site - not sure if it is because other parties cannot do it, or are not allowed to do it by the established crowd. As a front-line state in the war between Dharmic and A-dharmic forces, BJP/RSS should start making inroads starting yesterday.Not sure if NaMo/AmitShah will have a strategy for it later.

hanumadu · Post by **hanumadu** » 12 May 2014 20:58

The maximum variance of Chanakya with others is in UP, Bihar and Karnataka.

Murali ji, we will know on the 16th but I suspect many people outside the state are not able to sense the seething anger in Assam against Congress from a very broad range of people cutting across ethnicity, language and class that I have interacted with.

In time, Kerala will come. Lets get the low hanging fruits first - UP (where BJP ruled once), Bihar (where it can rule on its own now), MH (about time) AND THEN - Orrissa, Assam and Telengana (attack these states parties with extreme prejudice, including not extending special favor from Center) and THEN WB, AP and TN and then finally Kerela. Next election cycle the first round, second election cycle second, 3rd election cycle third group and finally Kerela.

fanne or some one please do a line graph. A horizantal line wih markings of 200 to 320. And mark off the various poll surveys.

Muraliravi then do a stat analysis of how far off these are from the average and by how many std deviations.

I hypothesize that TimesNow is an outlier and either methods are flawed or is agenda driven.
