		<description>the basic fact of this karnataka elections is that there is going to be a direct fight between the congress and the BJP.The reason is simple jd(s)has lost steam and its leader devegowda knows it therefore he is planning to consolidate his strength by winning atleast 20 to 30seats so that he can play a crucial role in the ministry making.congress on the other hand is trying to consolidate the backwardclass,dalit,kuruba and the minority vote and looks like succeeding to a great extent.the reasons are very simple congress is very tacitly projecting kharge who is the state president as CM candidate.It has also succeeded in keeping Siddaramiah in good humour by accomodating all his close followers thereby ensuring that kuruba vote is not divided.the minorities are likely to vote in a manner that its vote should not weaken the secular parties.the question therefore is which among the two parties will be the single largest party?by getting lingayat vote consolidated in its favour theBJP has lost any hope of garnering vokkaliga orbackward class votes who are bittery opposed to lingayats coming to power with a lingayat chief minister.even assuming BJP will succeed in becoming single largest party its dream of making the government on its own will not fructify as its not going to get absolute majority.Hence my considered opinion is that it will either  be a congress government or a coalition of congress and some other secular party/parties</description>

		<description>Yeddyurrappa seems to be a patient, soft-spoken politician.  He has good ideas as clearly articulated in his website www.vijayeekarnataka.com
The BJP surely has wave for it and infact this wave is strengthened with every election is Karnataka.  There should be no problem for a superb BJP victory, even a Landslide victory.</description>

		<description>Hi,
CNN-IBN forecast on Karnataka Mid-term poll may not be prove correct.
To
The Editor,
Star of Mysore,
Mysore.
Dear Sir,
Sub: Astrological predictions on polls.

MUSINGS ON POLL SURVEY AND ASTROLOGY:
I read your analytical thoughts of the present situation and pre-poll survey as well as astrological predictions.
As per my experience in these 25 years I found planets played key roll on polls and I have got the number of seats as well as percentage of votes.
As per my study on the charts of Mr.H.D.Devegowda, Mr.H.D.Kumaraswaamy and horary charts erected for Mr.B.S.Yediyurappa and Mr.Merajuddheen Patel I have predicted that  JD(S) will get 56 seats, Congress will get 65 seats and BJP will secure 79 seats and JD(S) Congress will farm the government and Mr.Merajuddheen Patel will take oath on 27th July 2008.

Mr.H.D.Devegowda now running “Kalpadruma yoga dasha Ravi” and Rahu bhukti these two combined period indicate his power will be Lord Indra as happened in the past when he became CM of Karnataka and PM of India .,then he was running the same “kalpadruma yoga of Venus and Rahu bhukti”.

In fact he will live like lord Indra up to 29th September 2009, and Mr.H.D.Kumaraswaamy running Mercury Dasha Sun bhukti which signifies pitru shapa will not allow him to occupy the CM post I feel astrologically as per my knowledge in the same.

As per Mr.B.S.Yediyurappa horary chart I found nearly 34% is in his favor means 79 seats out of 224 seats. His winning chances though have tough fight with the one of Ex-CM S.Bangarappa (I have predicted his fall on 11th November 1992)but will with very little margin of votes.

Since 2004 Karnataka is under control of Mr.H.D.Devegowda due to powerful Kalpadruma as well as Akhandasamrajya yoga, it will be till 2009 September 29th which can not be ruled out.

On 10th May nearly 75% is favor and on 16th 25% favor and on 22nd May 100% favor ,but on 25th May Mr.Gowda having 25% favor denotes 56 seats out of 224.But, total favor comes to 121 seats denotes Congress will gain 65 seats and will farm the government.

Astrologers predictions may fail butt not astrology is of my opinion and astrological predictions fails because of bad periods of astrologers only.

I do not like to predict on political aspects but out of curiosity I predict on this issue. Every natal/horary chart is an examination paper for an astrologer whether he is amateur or scholor.Neither I will not be happy for my accurate predictions nor I will be sad if it fails.

Mr.Merajuddheen Patel has bright chances to become Chief Minister of Karnataka than Mr.H.D.Kumaraswaamy or Mr.B.S.Yediyurappa.

		<description>All these Polls are false.They cannot predict the great mass of people which are based in the rural areas of India, who matter the most when it comes to Elections.
Can anyone tell if anybody succeded in predicting the 2007 State Elections of UP last year.Everyone failed miserably.

How can just a sample of 5000 people indicate the whole trend of crores of voters.</description>

		<description>Most media organizations believe that they can create a public opinion in favour of one party or the other. This of course is partially true of the local language channels. 

In the TV programme the pollster did hedge his risk to say that the prediction is valid "If the poll is  held now.." 

When they conducted the poll perhaps it was not known that S M Krishna may not contest, Siddu would say that this is his last election and also Jaffer Sheriff had not expresed his disllusionment.

Hence there are too many parameters under which the prediction can be changed by the pollsters and yet call themselves scientific.

If the prediction are believed to be scientific, they need to publicise the algorithm by which they have predicted the swing and seat forecast and what precautions they have taken to chose the sample, how they have asccounted for the delimitation effect etc.</description>

The Dalits, OBCs and Minorities, who are considered the "silent" voters are almost solidly behind the Congress this time.

CNN-IBN's survey has been carried out scientifically and most pre-poll surveys are more or less on the dot. No media organization would like to put its credibility and reputation at stake by favouring one political party.

Though media organizations like CNN-IBN and NDTV have shown a soft corner for Congress simply because they are also expected to shoulder the social responisibility of keeping communal forces like BJP at bay, their prediction is based on scientific analysis.

		<description>Looking at the Caste/Religion equation, Lingayats and Vokkaligas are there in all the three major parties. Though the leadership may be with a Lingayat in one party or a Vokkaliga  in another party, the other communities in each of these parties are strong enough to be considered equal partners.

Relatively speaking,  JDS appears to be dominated by Vokkaligas because Deve Gowda is the leader. But Both Congress and BJP has equal spread of Lingayats and  Gowdas and anti Vokkaliga or anti Lingayat sentiments can harm both of them equally.

If caste equations become relevant, then the beneficiary could be BSP and not necessarily Congress. OBCs may be divided across all three parties.

The one unknown factor is how Muslims vote. Will they consolidate with Congress? or get divided across parties? The survey is silent on this crucial factor. Similarly the survey has not factored the effect of rebel candidates.

Hence the result cannot be skewed towards any one party. The most predictable result would be the three way split with BJP and Congress gaining over the last election at the expense of JDS. Any other result including a creditable performance by JDS would be a surprise.</description>

		<description>For Srivatsa: What I meant when I said "also ran" was that  in some constituencies the first two places would belong to BJP and JDS. May be we may debate whether the appropriate use of the word could have been "Some" instead of "many". But this election is not expected to be a cake walk for Congress. Most of the constituencies would find an equal three way contest with BSP influencing the result in its own way.

114 seats out of 224 for Congress as predicted by the Poll appears to be a gross over estimation.</description>

		<description>This poll is definitely motivated.. no doubt in it... This time Kumaraswamy is definitely going to form the government coz of his pro poor and middle class strategies. Deve Gowda will definitely continue his pro poor facilities. Only Deve Gowda can understand the poor and farmers.. we don't want anyone other than JDS</description>

		<description>No Doubt CNN-IBN poll is motivated ..

Fact of the matter is that our Mr. Rajdeep Sardesai's of MSM have now started to play the same games in Karnatka they tried to play in Gujarat elections with disastrous results......

BJP is clear leader in current situation with Congress far behind.....

But Media as it is the doormat of Congress will try it's level best to campaign for Congress...

The best part....People can now see through this old game of Media.....</description>
