I am going full Monty here as this election seems to be a clear rejection of UPA, with high turnout, no evidence for RG or anyone in Congress having any positive effect; their wins are based on local stalwarts and demographics onlee; so tough to break 3 digits. Could be that I am wrong and they sneak into the 3 digits. So be it. Also I am discounting voter list shenanigans and EVM conspiracies. Ok, 60 lakh deletions happened in MH. But how many were legit? Maybe most of them? If even 30 lakh were dubious then there should be atleast 18 lakh (60%) folks who are pissed they didn't get to vote. I just don't see those numbers in any credible reports. For example we've heard of Deepak Parekh and a few other well known people excluded. But there are lots of well known people in Mumbai including Journalists. Where are the numbers? Sure people in some buildings got left out, but that's an easy one to explain I think. Unless new evidence appears, I don't think this will have an effect. Also muslim turnout was low in Mumbai according to reports.

p.s. If I was betting real money I'd hedge across the <=100 and 100-110 categories, 60 vs. 40. Since there is no money but only reputation involved, I can take more risk and hope for more reward.

well there is no UPA this time. It is for congis to survive somehow to make a fighting comeback in 2019. What they are afraid of , is that NaMo might not give them second chance for next 20 years and by that time their carefully sculpted structure of power-broking will stand totally demolished. We will see likes of Amarsinh choudhary type leaders, who would fail to revive congis , like he failed Gujarat Congis.

my trust in congress ability to manage seats individually is exemplary. Note the happenings of Bihar, Nitish is sacrificing himself to halt Modi, guess who just got another 10 seats?

My latest estimate for UPA

UPA
INC 117
JMM 1
RJD 13
NCP 9
IUML 2
NC 1
PDP 2
AAP 2
AUDF 3
MIM 1

Total 151

NC, PDP, AAP, AUDF and MIM are not with UPA officially, so UPA will be 142.

Week 4 UPA

In week 1 median=105, week 2 median=99, week3 median=109, week 4 median=105.

Not much of a trend in the medians. Variation is mostly due to different judges across time. If we rely on the judges median, then it looks like the place to bet is 100 - 110 range for UPA with max probability.

Judges can be divided as follows into 2 camps:

Optimists

Why am I an optimist? Because its not just a Modi-wave but also an anti-Congi wave. Satta market is betting 80 or less for CongI. So UPA wont be able to reach 110, in my opinion. I must say that opinion is very sharply divided here and unlike the NDA numbers these are harder to argue for or against. There's also an understandable reluctance in media and elsewhere to write off CongI. Call it the 67 year inertial wave. But much water has flown under the bridge. Congress doesnt have regional power-bases anymore. So if its allies are getting walloped, there ain't no place to hide. Game, set, and match.

BJP estimates are 300 or thereabouts.Even if this is a trifle optimistic and the actual figure is 270+,if one adds about 110 for the Cong/UPA,then the rest must be made up of regional parties,etc.Of these at least 20-30 seats will support the NDA .Even rebel expelled Jaswant has said that while he will not rejoin the BJP ,he will support it from outside.This will give the NDA an easy 300+ seats.

If one looks at the high turnout as being mostly a Modi wave/tsunami,then it could be a landslide for the tBJP/NDA with the BJP alone getting 300 seats
.The two entities which are going to really "face the music" are the Congress-decimation,annihilation,mastication,sublimation,pulverisation,extermination par excellence....and the Left,who will be "Left Out" in grand style.In fact this election shows the Left to be "bereft" of any ideology,strategy or tactics that it could take advantage of the Congress' rejection over the litany of corruption scams,maladministration and the anti-incumbency factor. Prakash Karat looks so forlorn waiting as if for someone to feed him a juicy carrot! A hunting party/APB is required to find the whereabouts of one Yechury S. "Missing in action"!

Tine for Modi doubters to "smell the chai"!

Different judges for UPA and NDA causes this inconsistency, maybe.

If we go by March opinion, then the estimates for NDA at 262 is reasonable.. I think the situation has changed since March. Maybe UPA will manage more than 110 but 120 seems to be a hard limit, surely? And surely NDA (now) should be favored for 280+?

Mafia has B teams like TRS, Jagan, SP,BSP etc which are not UPA but are Cripto UPA or UPA plus. So though UPA may be around 100 but it can get another 25 plus for from these B teams. But the problem with B teams like TRS, Jagan etc is they can be Jump Jilanis. Even NCP within UPA is not reliable. Only SP and BSP are true friends of Mafia.
