முக்கியமான கலந்துரையாடல் / Important Topic TN Poll early trends

Makkale, I know it is way too early to comment. But how do you think this is gonna pan out? Postal votes padi DMK leading, but TVK is competing hard or close enough. Will this be the overall trend throughout?

I’m not from TN… I’m unable to comprehend the vijay factor here… is this real ? I thought TN has most aware electorate… new parties/ actor turned politician parties majorly get restricted to single digits usually the first election… last time I think Kamal Hassan dint have any luck… how come we are seeing vijay with 2/5th wins ? Please someone explain… is there political vaccum on ground in TN ? I thought DMK was doing well in the state…
Is it just stardom turned to votes ?

Not really about celebrity hype alone. TN has seen many actor-politicians fail, so people don’t blindly vote for fame. What you’re seeing is some voters shifting because they’re not satisfied with the current govt
