Polls are closely scrutinized in any democracy, with voters paying attention from the notification of elections to the final results. Exit polls, in particular, capture significant interest.
KK Survey, a relatively unknown polling organization before the recent Assembly elections in Andhra Pradesh, gained attention due to its accurate prediction of the TDP coalition’s victory in that state. This success led them to forecast a Congress win in Haryana.
In their exit poll, KK Survey suggested that the BJP would face significant losses, predicting they would secure only 12-15 seats due to a strong anti-incumbency sentiment. Conversely, they projected that Congress would easily win around 75 seats.
However, the electorate in Haryana did not follow these predictions. Instead, voters carefully evaluated their options and delivered a clear message to political parties about the need for responsibility. Ultimately, the BJP managed to achieve a hat-trick victory, albeit by a narrow margin.
Interestingly, following the elections, many netizens sought out KK Survey’s exit poll results, expecting them to be accurate again after their success in Andhra Pradesh. However, this time, their predictions fell short.
