Voting for Aparijita Sarangi the sitting BJP MP was no brainer. For Jatani AC seat, I was torn between BJD and BJP till last moment. In 2019, the seat was won by Sura "ମାଡି ଚାଲ" Routray. Sura Bhai by the way have given us this masterpiece:
Last time he won by about 5% of the votes and talking to locals he appeared to be quite strong a candidate. But the six time MLA decided it was time to pass the seat to his sons. I am not aware of what happened but in the end his younger son ended up on a BJD ticket for Bhubaneswar LS and he was later thrown out of INC for "anti party activities." There was no Congress appreciation after that, so rather than a tactical vote to keep INC out, I pressed on the Lotus.
Anyway lets vote for results, and hope I actually posting once in a while here.
