In the 2014 LS election, the BJP got 42 % in UP, the SP got 24 %, the BSP 22 % and the Congress 7 %.
In 2014, the BJP was riding on the wave of extreme anti-incumbency against the corrupt and scam ridden 10 year rule of the UPA and also on the big hype created by Modi about achhe din.
The Congress, SP and the BSP were at their lowest ebb.
This time, the calculation of the SP and the Congress is that the BJP will face massive erosion in the 42 % vote share it got in 2014 due to widespread disillusionment over the non-delivery against its promises, the beating of dalits by Gau Rakshaks and by the massive disaster that the demonetization has turned out to be !
But the SP and the Congress may be underestimating the immense uses the BJP can put its massive black money hoard (built with tax evaded funds given to it by Gautam Adani & Co) to !
The black money chests of the SP and even that of the Congress are now dwarfed by the size of that of the BJP !
And so the BJP will be holding the biggest election rallies repeatedly (with lakhs of people brought in thousands of buses from even distant areas), melas, yatras and also engineer many communal riots !
