Yes the BJP has made a big blunder. Instead of widening its social base, it narrowed to a single communiy - Lingayat - just 17% of the population

Brahmins - GSBs, Smarathas, Madhavas will vote BJP too. I heard even reddys, bunts, kodavas and patidars are voting BJP.

BJP looks unstoppable.

karnataka people tried corrupt congress, more corrupt deva gowda in the past 60 years.congress
brought another corrupt coffeeday krishna who owns many coffee estates in coorg and properties
in bangalore city.let karnaka people say goodbye
to congress and janata and try this time bjp which i am sure they will do good service to state. bjp ruled states are having good developments and headed by non corrupt persons and hard workers.their performances are watched
and reviewed every three months.due to poor performance, uma bharati,madanlal kurana were thrown out of chief ministership and now they lost their ground in their own state.bjp project
only grass root level workers/retd army general
IIT men,RSS dedicated persons. so pl vote for bjp this time ,for first time,to give a chance.

No, basically BJP is trying to get all COMMUNAL votes from Lingayat, Vokkaliga and Brahmins.

Secular votes will be divided between Congress, JDS, SP, BSP.

BJP will win with COMMUNAL votes.
