What A Tale For TVK: 1 Vote Wins MLA And Then 90K+

Something unexpectedly, extraordinary happened in Tamil Nadu politics yesterday as Thalapathi Vijay scripted history by storming to power nearly in his first ever election campaign. His TVK is the single largest party in Tamil Nadu now and even bigger than the DMK and AIDMK.

In the meanwhile, the discussion has started about the kind of electoral outcome that was registered by the Vijay party, and here is a look at the numbers game. Interestingly enough, a TVK candidate named Srinivas Sethupathi won the election from Thipattur constituency in Tamil Nadu by a margin of just one vote.

This particular candidate got 83,375 votes while his closest competitor from DMK got 83,374 votes. This has to be the closest election in the history of Tamil Nadu, and there could be obvious parallel comparison in the future as well.

This again ignite the discussion about the political equilibrium where every single vote matters and this particular election result where a candidate won by a single vote is a clear indication of the same. And at the same time, TVK has again outdone everyone by securing a sensational 90,000+ majority victories in two constituencies across Tamil Nadu.

The fact that the very same party could win Assembly seats by margin of one vote and also by margin of more than 90,000 votes is very interesting here. This has to be one of the most interesting and fear some elections in recent years, not just in Tamil Nadu, but also across India and the outcome is equally intriguing as well.
