The Politics of Cross-Voting
by All Right on Jul 23, 2008 12:18 PM

The analysis of cross-voting indicated that 6 SP MPs switched to BSP and 1 Congress MPs switched over to the BJP.

These cross-voting started 10 days ago with Mayawati and BJP parading their defectors. BJP tried poaching more Congress

MPs like Jalappa, whose son is already a BJP MLA in Karnataka. Congress was supposed to lose as many as 4 MPs to the BJP

and the SP was being targeted by UNPA for a vertical split.

The best form of defense was offense and the UPA-SP retaliated in kind to not only stem the tide but to put both the

UNPA and NDA on the defensive.

So Mayawati, Karat and Advani maybe crying crocidile tears now. They have been worsted in their own game. Losers
