There’s a whole lot of suspense on the political front. Who will win and who will lose the Assembly elections in the five states of Rajasthan, Madhya Pradesh, Mizoram, Chhattisgarh and India’s newest state Telangana? Counting day is still three days away and until that, the closest we have to some answers are the exit poll predictions.

Good news for Congress in Rajasthan, since they seem to be getting a clear majority according to most exit polls. The state has seen a 25-year trend of alternating between the BJP and the Congress and as we already know one of the biggest issues of the BJP government headed by Vasundhara Raje is anti-incumbency. Republic TV-CVoter, predicted a thumping majority for the Congress. The India Today-Axis poll also predicted an easy win for Congress.
