The pollsters at C-Voter have delivered a surprise. You may rubbish it for all you can, but the pollsters have made a name for themselves for their track record. Here is what it says.

Rajinikanth's yet-to-be-launched political party will secure 23 Lok Sabha seats in Tamil Nadu if elections were to be held today. Consisting of a large chunk of respondents, this survey was conducted in December. Its results were put out a few hours ago.

Sceptics are asking as to how the Superstar can win so many seats, defeating DMK and AIADMK, when none even knows the agenda of his future party.

Be that as it may, what the big survey says about Andhra Pradesh is quite interesting, too. The survey says that YSRCP will win 13 seats, while the ruling TDP-BJP duo will get 12. Yes, Jana Sena doesn't figure anywhere.

It's counter-intuitive that Pawan Kalyan, whose party is 3.5 years old, doesn't figure in the poll, while Rajinikanth's party, we are told, will shake the political realm in Tamil Nadu!
