Exit polls: BSP may top hung House in UP
NEW DELHI: If exit polls are to be believed, the first phase of polling in Uttar Pradesh has been somewhat bad for the ruling Samajwadi Party and pretty good for the BSP, but at the end of it all the state might end up with an assembly that's well and truly hung.
The four separate exit polls conducted by Times Now, Star News, NDTV and India TV did not agree on exactly how well the major parties had done in this particular phase, but the two that made projections for the entire state based on these polls agreed that the BSP would finish as the single largest party followed by the SP, the BJP and the Congress in that order. They also agreed that no party would get more than 135 seats in the 403-member assembly.
The TIMES NOW -Hansa exit poll predicted that the SP would fare best in the first round of polling. It gave the SP 22 seats, with a range of 20-24, out of the 62 seats that went for polling in the first phase of assembly elections. It forecast 18 seats for the BSP (range of 16-20), 15 for BJP (range 13-17) and 5 for the Congress (range 3-7).
The Star News -AC Nielsen poll said the SP was likely to win 15 seats in the first phase, a drastic decline from the 24 it won in 2002 and an even sharper drop from the 2004 Lok Sabha polls, when it led in 45 of these seats. It suggested the BSP would win 20 seats, up from 14 in 2002, while the BJP and its allies would win 19, one more than they did last time.
For the state as a whole, it projected the BSP to finish with 135 seats, the SP with 103 and the BJP alliance with 99 seats. The Congress, which this exit poll said would get five seats in phase 1, is projected to win 28 seats in the state.
The NDTV exit poll, done by IMRB, shows the SP doing somewhat better, with 20-24 seats in the first phase, ahead of the BSP's 16-20, the BJPs 12-16 and the Congress 6-10. The poll projects 120-130 seats for SP, very close to the 125-135 seats for BSP and well ahead of the 80-90 seats it said the BJP alliance was likely to win. The Congress is predicted to almost double its 2002 tally of 25 and finish with 40-50 seats.

You all know what this means. The anti-national media is making up the polls to drive muslim votes from SP to BSP and hoping somehow BSP will get enough seats and they can form govt. with the help of CON woman's party.
All the polls so far they have projected in the last one year went wrong and BJP came out with flying colors. I hope this happens this time too.
