The Congress party has crossed a hundred-seat mark in the Initial results. Both the Congress and BJP are neck to neck in the poll results. The JDS is going to be the Kingmaker.
Congress state president D K Shivakumar junked the exit poll results in which the party, though it gains the highest number of seats, has to contend with a hung Assembly.
He insisted that the party will win at least 141 seats and form a majority government.
There was a wave in favor of the Congress, Shivakumar said, a day ahead of the counting of votes of the Assembly election.
He also ruled out the possibility of the return of ‘resort politics’ saying that “era ended 25 years ago”.
“I don’t trust exit polls. I have trust in 141 seats. Our sample size is much bigger. Exit poll sample size is small. There is a major wave in favour of the Congress,” Shivakumar told .
Stating that the exit poll results fluctuate by 20 seats, the Congress state chief said the number he has given will only increase and not decrease.
