Apropos your statement "Although the BJP’s coalition experiment with the JD(S) lasted only for20 months, it gave the party a chance to participate in a government that was widely regarded as popular", I have serious misgivings. What is the basis for your observation that the JD (S)-BJP Government was "popular". The credibility of your survey has sufferred a serious dent as you have exposed your personal bias. The reputation of your organisation and the media in which this survey will be published is set to go for a six. Congress is winning in Karnataka. Mark my word. I have seen several elections and the electoral arithmetic favours the grand old party and not the saffron party as your predict.
