That the BJP failed to cross the halfway mark by 3 seats is testimony to the fact that Congress failed to cross the halfway mark by 33 seats, and JD-S failed by about 85 seats.. :-) In fact, put together, these blokes are still 2 seats short of BJP. So clearly this was a mandate in favor of a secular government... you are right.. Yeddyurappa is presently undergoing the procedures to ensure that that government does get installed and functions properly..
