- was fun meeting old and new twitter friends yesterday at hokeypokey! pics here http://is.gd/AhRE – the iphone camera isn’t great! #
- acc.to Prannoy Roy on NDTV – no other country counts its votes as fast as India. Is this true? #indiavotes09. leads rolling in quickly! #
- @shashib check live feeds on ndtv.com or ibnlive.in.com. the twitter hashtag #indiavotes09 probably the quickest. in reply to shashib #
- @shashib more sources for India election results http://is.gd/AiKj which i think is the official EC site and check the Hindu. #indiavotes09 #
- damn Raj Thackeray’s MNS leading in South Bombay. But Shiv Sena seems to be losing many so that’s good. Hinudtva FAIL #indiavotes09 #
- impressed with NDTV presentation of election results using touchscreen. just wish they’d get out of satellite image mode. #indiavotes09 #
- @thecomicproject hv respect for Prannoy Roy, NDTV. he’s an elections veteran along w Dorab Sopariwala. & not given to hasty judgement. in reply to thecomicproject #
- @thecomicproject i meant to say – I have respect for him – that sounded like an order !!!!
in reply to thecomicproject # - RT @Asfaq: @keithdsouza UPA FTW!!!! #indiavotes09 #
- this is the rise of Rajiv Gandhi. chidambaram, mani shankar aiyer trailing.regional parties trailing. v smart electorate. #indiaelections09 #

- @patrix you know it doesn’t really matter. he is a leader of a different kind. i respect and believe that he is good for the country in reply to patrix #
- @patrix i voted for his governance. not his politics. he could contest and win but that doesn’t make a difference to me in reply to patrix #
- congress fighting UP/Bihar on it’s own was a great decision. Rahul Gandhi is emerging as a smart, gutsy & patient man. #indiavotes09 #
- NDTV: best performance for a national party since 1991. what was all that abt the take-over of regional parties in national politics? #i … #

- @calamur perhaps becoz we don’t want more fear and hatred? becoz Mumbai doesn’t believe any politician cd avoid it? #indiavotes09 in reply to calamur #
- @DH_Photography aaah thanks for the clarification in reply to DH_Photography #
- @tarunbansal if u look at the search for ‘bjp’ it’s more abt pple celebrating their loss. so that doesn’t address my qn. #indiavotes09 in reply to tarunbansal #

- @shantanugangal perhaps – its been suggested at my blogpost too. shd do analsyis on actual vote counts. also state elections will tell. in reply to shantanugangal #

- @Gauravonomics they were ‘in-your-face’ or no conversation or msg. Bloggers for Advani – many totally irrelevant eg. http://is.gd/AtBU . in reply to Gauravonomics #

- @sachinuppal @maheshmurthy @gauravonomics #indiavotes09 Modi would certainly have had a message. But an irrelevant one. So wrong message? in reply to sachinuppal #
- @ksjhalla @Gauravonomics u right, it was visible. failing to resonate indicates problems with tactics & message, no? #indiavotes09 in reply to ksjhalla #
- @mssnlayam ah thanks
in reply to mssnlayam # - night all! i’ve OD’d on Twitter the last two days. crossed 2000 updates and didn’t realize it. #
