Voter turnout in 2021 assembly election is 76.6%. If the voter turnout jumps by 10%, it usually signals one of two things:
1.Strong anti-incumbency against the ruling party
Or
2. It’s going to be a new player effect
5 years of anti-incumbency. A strong traditional anti-DMK vote bank. New players like Vijay entering the field. Over 60 sitting MLAs denied tickets.
Yet DMK cadres including the CM are constantly on the ground.
Meanwhile, the “star” of this election? Vijay…keeps disappearing.
In the upcoming election, Vijay might not secure victory, but he could play the role of a disruptor, splitting votes and influencing a hung assembly that benefits the DMK alliance.
An earthquake measuring 3 on the Richter scale was felt in Sithurajapuram, Sivakasi, and nearby areas for about 30–40 seconds. Hoping that everyone is safe and sound. 🤍
