Axis-MyIndia claiming 361-401 for NDA vs. 131-166 for INDIA. And other BJP-blowOuts in the east:   BJD was hurt, i assume, that an alliance with BJP was brought into play for few hours. BJD was probably hurt more by Patnaik’s likely successor not being Odia, and specifically Tamil (who from what I understand, don’t have the best reputation)… Edit: ‘don’t have the best reputation’ is about Tamils in general, and not Patnaik’s successor specifically. |

If the BJP somehow loses Karnal (where they got 70% of the vote in 2019), then they should treat it as a lesson for not deselecting candidates for no reason.

There live only ~6,000 Tamils in Odisha, but it was apparently an issue - otherwise the CM wouldn't have ruled him out 2 days ago (what was only early enough for phase VII: the 6 seats in the east). |

It’s not a demographic issue, it boiled down to who can a non Odia backroom guy take over the state? Also, the guy has been parcelling out land and contracts to various Tamilians. As Odisha is a mineral rich state, a lot of money is being earned and most of it is going to Tamilians. Causes outrage in one of the poorest parts of the world. |

Nagaland and Mizoram are heavily Christian while Manipuri Hindus (who dominate Inner Manipur) are very angry with BJP for having supposedly sided with the Kukis and hence are voting for the INC which actually supports the Kukis  . |

Im not surprised by the BJP not winning Inner Manipur because the low IQ of the Hindus in Manipur (how dare the Assam Rifles not act like a Meitei militia like the local police force!), hopefully Modi gets them, and WB under presidential rule. But an INC victory in Mizoram seems extremely unlikely (one would have expected an easy ZPN victory there, as they aren't affiliated with the BJP). |
