Oh, come on, that has something to do with our electoral system.
It is an interesting observation.
Cong gets 35% votes, but only 80 seats.
BJP gets 34% votes, but 110 seats.
I am glad that BJP won, but at the same time, there is something severely wrong with the way the electoral system is working. Something similar happened to BJP in 2004 Lok Sabha elections. I am only worried that this flaw may work against BJP sometime in future.
Guys, we must think of this and amend the constitution if necessary.

Hi, Percentage of votes polled is an average across all the constituencies. This includes all the seats that were won and lost.
A clear case of votes and vote swing is studied only by looking at the vote percentage of win seats and vote percentage of loss seats.
An across the board average does not work in real terms........
Now, dont get me wrong...I am no supporter of any of the parties that were in fray.....
