MLC Polls: YSRCP Cruising!

Published by

The counting for Graduate MLC elections got underway this morning and the preliminary results show positive signs for the ruling YSR Congress. The polling was held for three graduates, two teachers and three local authorities constituencies in the state.

YSRCP candidate Kavuru Srinivas registered victory in the West Godavari district MLC elections by 418 votes and Narthu Ramarao from srikakulam district who is backed by the ruling party won by 632 votes against independent candidate Anepu Ramakrishna. Anepu is supported by the Telugu Desam.

Dr. Madhusudhan of YCP scored victory in the Kurnool local authorities constituency polls. Madhusudhan secured a majority of 988 votes. These three results were expected by the YCP but it’s the Uttarandhra region where the counting will take time for the results to come out.

In 2007, 2011 and 2017, the second priority votes played a pivotal role and this time it’s no different. At Swarna Bharati stadium the counting is underway with a polling staff of 500 members.

A total of 2,00,926 votes needed to be counted and it would take around 10 to 12 hours, informed the polling officers.
