Congress ahead of BJP in coastral Karnataka would seem to be amusing news to even Moily who would have jumped to the first opportunity and throw his hat to CMship.(Currently he is not even a rajyasabha member after getting thumped by BJP 3 times). Same case with Janarana Poojary, Margaret Alwa, Oscar Fernandez. Same case with Janardhana pujari. All Kannada newspapers said congress would be hard pressed to retain 1 seat in this region (Ullal which after delimitation has become Mangalore North with several Mangalore city wards merged with it). Even when BJP has rebel in Puttur (home seat of BJP state president Sadananda gowda) papers are saying BJP rebel will win and congress will be hard pressed to save deposit. The region is 100 percent literate with least incidence of poverty in entire south India or for that matter India. Yogendra Yadav has to find a reason that congress is ahead due to support from lower section of society when upper castes and OBCs are solidly backing BJP. Narendra Modi drew the loudest applause in karnataka when he said coastral region is South India's gujarat. I am 100 percent sure Yadav of CSDS will give 100 reasons why his forecast did not work when results are declared on May 25. One time failure is OK(In Uttaranchal and Punjab last year). Second time is OK. But if you keep making mistakes like this CNN has to find a better pseuphologist and pack Yadav to Kerala or Bengal for accuracy in poll forecasting.

I agree with that...in north Karnataka, they accepted MP Prakash and all his followers just on the hopes that they can put up a decent fight against BJP...coastal Karnataka BJP no contest, main fight will be in south Karnataka...same leaders who got JD(S) support in 2004 are all gone aside from its first family...winning seats outside Hassan will be a challenge...BJP and Congress likely to eat up JD(S) seats in Mysore, Chamrajnagar, etc...and I think in Andhra Karnataka Congress has more to lose, Bangalore no clear picture...if BJP has firmly make its presence felt in old JD(S) bastions, it will be in power.

BJP recently got good leaders in old Mysore region like GT Devegowda, Madhu Madegowda, Prakash KR per, kempegowda, Ravena Siddaiah, Benki Mahadev. I strongly feel in Mandya , Mysore & Chamarajnagar region BJP is going to gain good numbers. It all depends on local candidate who is contesting in election. If party has good candidate he can win. Survey has no meaning

It is BJP which is going to win with thumping majority this time................ But I would like to request Voters to give clear majority ... not like last time ..... Otherwise these Gowdas will again open their "DUKAN" of politics for power and money
If CNN-IBN and NDTV are on the side of Congress, BJP has nothing to worry about. It will romp home comfortably. Plus the iron legs of Rahul and Sonia will definitely ensure that BJP comes to power.
As for Karnataka people - terrorists from J&K to Manipur have now made your land as their base and the UPA government is looking the other way. Development has gone back to the 1980's. For true security and development and for your own good vote BJP only.
Yogendra Yadav's analysis is as skewed as his Gujarat Analysis.

Under which leadership Krgil happened? Who dared enter the Parliament and Aksardham under whose Governance.All parties are same.
Dont believe this poll. Rajdeep of CNN-IBN is a dog maintained by Sonia. Also Deccan Herald (partner of CNN IBN) is pro congress. How can you forget Rajdeep's analysis of Gujarath polls?
Guys, believe me.. Congress is going to get screwed big time in Karnataka.
Boss, where did you get this poll this figure only on Papers... No way Congress will never come to power in karnataka. Congress has looted the COUNTRY, since independence. Still want to loot ??? If you see JDS=> Family politics (only for DAD,SONS,DAUGHTER and INLAWS)so this time people of Karnataka will teach the lesson...
The truth story is BJP will 100% come to power in Karnataka as well in CENTER.

who the hell cares what u porkistani likes.papistan is total failed state run by goons 4 goons.
Lets see...one month before Punjab and Uttarakhand polls last year, CNN-IBN declared incumbent Congress gov't in both states had a 10% lead. In UP, Congress expected to make vast improvements in tally and vote percentage, and instead ended up in its most pathetic state ever. In Gujarat, how can we forget the beautiful charts and pre-poll statistics about how every social group was turning against Modi, rebels were going to completely destroy the BJP votebank, etc. etc...
So that can only tell me, if CNN-IBN is declaring a clear majority for the Congress in Karnataka, it is basically doomed to perform miserably.
WHAT CONGRESS HAVE DONE FOR THE COUNTRY BEFORE THIS MOST CORRUPT AND WESTERN BOOT LICKING CONGRESS CAME TO POWER.....NOW LED BY SONIA MANIO... 1) THEY ARE THE FOREFATHERS TO HAVE DIVIDED INDIA INTO SEVERAL ARAB STATES... 2) SARDAR PATEL GETS STABBED IN THE BACK :- ALL THE CONGRESS PARTY MEMBERS INCLUDING SARDHAR PATEL (HOME MINISTER) AND NERU (SO CALLED PRIME MINISTER) ARE DISCUSSING WHAT TO BE DONE AFTER PAKISTAN BACKED TRIBALS OCCUPY KASHMIR .NERU WANTS TO CALL IN THE UN AT THE LINE OF CONTROL BUT SARDHAR PATEL SAYS NO WAY HE' LL ALLOW ANY UN IN INDIAN TERRITORY AND SAID HELL PUSH ALL THE TRIBALS AND PAKISTANIS OUT OF WHOLE OF KASHMIR EVEN IF INDIAN TROOPS HAVE TO CROSS PAKISTAN ITSELF .BUT THEN NERU, BEHIND PATELS BACK ,CALLS IN THE UN ,ON THE SO CALLED LINE OF CONTROL ,IN KASHMIR ..PATEL RESIGNED SOON AFTER THAT BETRAYAL . 3)UNDER NERUS RULE INDIA LOSES A LARGE PART OF INDIA TO CHINA . 4)CONGRESS CREATES BINDRAWALLA TO TRY TO DESTROY THE AKALI PARTY . 5)EVERYONE SHOULD REMEMBER WHEN THOUSANDS OF INNOCENT SIKHS WERE MASSACRED BY CONGRESS WORKERS AFTER INDRA GANDHI WAS SHOT DEAD. 6)CONGRESS ARE MINORITY APPEASERS TO TRY TO CREATE VOTE BAGS. 7)CONGRESS ARE BIG FOLLOWERS OF CORRUPTION... AND THE LIST GOES ON AND ON....

BUT THIS CONGRESS HAS GONE OVER THE MOON...IN CORRUPTION...IN 4 YEARS OF DEALING WITH TERRORISM.....AND TO GO EVEN AGAINST THEIR OWN PAST POLICIES...THE FOOD PRICES HAVE GONE OUT OF CONTROL...WHIC THE PAST CONGRESS HAD ALWAYS BOASTED ABOUT.....SO WHAT HAS THIS CONGRESS GOT TO SHOW...SONIA MANIO...
