Tight race between UDF and LDF in Kerala

The initial trends from counting postal ballots in most of the Lok Sabha seats in Kerala on Tuesday indicated a close contest between the Congress-led UDF and the CPI(M)-led LDF.

 

Postal ballots were counted at 20 vote-counting centres across Kerala starting at 8 am.

 

According to the initial trends, the candidates of the ruling CPI(M)-led LDF are leading in seven segments, while the nominees of the Congress-headed UDF are leading in nine constituencies.
