Media is quick to write obituaries for Mayawati and her Bhujan Samaj Party and calling this a coming of age for Congress, but a deep dive into the numbers tell a different story as far as UP is concerned. BSP is still a force to recon with and it came second in as many as 50 seats in UP. Come back for more state wise analysis on Election 2009.
Update 14:56 Union Home Minister P Chidambaram has been declared elected after trailing from almost the beginning. AIDMK is already contesting the election as the victory margin is very small. DMK contested 21 teams and ended up winning or leading in 18 seats so far. 

Out of 543 seats results and trends are like this: UPA 259, NDA, 159, 3rd Front  81, 4th Front 27.
Congress by itself has fared very badly in Tamil Nadu.
Update 14:00 BJD sweeps Orissa Assembly elections 2009 and Navin Patnayak has clearly stated that he will support neither BJP or Congress to form national goverment. It is being said in various media circles that the politics of extremism has been rejected, but the initial trends that are coming out clearly contradicts this. BJP has done exceptionally well in Karnataka inspite of Pink Chaddi campaign and also that in the 4 out of 5 seats in Mumbai; MNS has emerged as the second candidate. So it is really not that simple to predict as to what worked and what did not.

Update 13:40 Ram Vilas Paswan loses his seat from Hajipur. H D Kumaraswamy wins his seat.
Update 12:14 Maneka Gandhi who left her Pilibhit constituency for her son Varun has lost from Aonla. Arun Jaitley formally concedes defeat. He clearly stated that BJP has lost the elections and they have come down below 2004 performance and Congress led UPA has emerged as the largest alliance and should form the government. Update: UPA to form the Next Government. Leading in 243 seats. Gaining majorly vis. a vis. 2004 Lok Sabha elections. Left front is losing its hold on West Bengal!
