Here you go sir,

Please note that I have used a 50% weight reduction factor for IBTL as I see them to be very biased towards BJP.

RamaY sir, your formula will make sense under normal circumstances, but I find some inherent biases in these surveys, lets skip that for now.

I have not included TG/Seemandhra simply because the alliance is fluid and I will put my analyst head and say reliable surveys give BJP a big zero in both states, TDP is not part of this table as these are just BJP numbers.

Image

Anyway, my prediction stays with the minimum, I dont expect them to go below 175 seats or above 190 seats. 175-190 will be their final tally.

just for comparison.

This was done in March just before the polls. Seems so long ago.

It gives 249 to NDA and 148 to UPA. Congis are being saved in a last ditch effort by Newstraders and Dienasty A$$licker Dorrknob from TimesNow.

Guys chill. How do you expect Timesnow to start reporting accurately when all along they were Congress A team? Look at other reports also.

Even with NDA at 249 - NDA forms government by including independents + BJD/AIDMK or some small set of parties.

I think TOI group needs to be investigated and destroyed. The way they LIE, create LIES against BJP, promote Priyanka, there has been a total case of sold out media to foreign interests. If this group is not destroyed, they will destroy India with their foreign banking

They surveyed people exiting Congress building and so they are called Exit-polls.

I don't think they follow any basics of surveys.


Timesnow man: "what is your number madam?"
Madam: "180"
Timesnow man: "for 20 cr more, we can make it 200"
Madam: "go for it"

But the exit poll data would have little to do with EVM tampering. Most likely their data collection is flawed or they are cooking numbers (i.e. sold out to anti-NDA forces). I have stopped looking at TimesNow, since we know their prediction (NDA = 249) now.

+108. Even 249 is good enough. BJP is already in talks with DMK
Timesnow is the low life-low bar. Headlines on TOIlet is ADMK sweepng TN with BJP =0.To some one who does not follow much, it looks like BJP is out.

What is there to sell out in an exit poll? It will not affect the results or further voting. Also it is only channel's reputation which is going to be on the line. For projecting a rosy image for 3 days will someone pay to get exit polls cooked?

Andhra Octopus Lagadapati Rajagopal hints possible defeat of YSR Congress party's honorary president YS Vijayamma in Visakha Lok Sabha constituency.

Speaking to a news channel, Lagadapati said: "During a flight journey, Brother Anil approached me to seek my opinion on the constituency Sharmila has to contest in 2014 Polls. He said to me that Jagan wishes to field her either from Malkajgiri or Vizag. I explained him both of these Lok Sabha constituencies were too risky as they fall in Urban area. I told him to prefer Anakapalli or Ongole or any other segment which falls in rural area."

In Lighter vein
New Delhi. In a joint meeting held by the representatives of all leading news channels last evening, it was unanimously decided to give at least 150 seats to AAP in every exit poll that will be telecast today after 6:30 pm.

The channels took this decision to avoid Aroon Purie like situation, where Kejriwal accused him selling his soul to Narendra Modi and called his opinion poll on Varanasi, farzi.

Timesnow will not report such numbers unless they are in on some magic in Rajastan etc. They will not risk credibility by reporting this now only to be proven wrong in a few days.
