Let me tell you a story about HD Kumaraswamy & his run up to the #KarnatakaElections2018
This story has its roots in the appalling socialist nightmare called @siddaramaiah's economic policy. It wreaked havoc on farmers in the old Mysore region.
Add drought and dole to this toxic mix. No crop, no income. This led to a massive flight of 20--35 age youth to Bangalore.
The #KarnatakaElections2018 saw more than 3 million Tweets from all over India and around the world, peaking on Counting Day yesterday. 
The closely-fought #KarnatakaElections2018 also saw a close fight in the parties' share of conversation on Twitter, with @BJP4Karnataka gathering 51% of mentions against @INCKarnataka's 42% and the JD(S)' 7%.
Between the BJP and Congress' leaders, @narendramodi and @BSYBJP took 47% of mentions on Twitter in the #KarnatakaElections2018 against @RahulGandhi and @siddaramaiah's 52%.

As long as your name is there on the electoral roll, you can vote. If no #VoterID card, use one of the alternate photo id cards:

Ramnagar, northern #Karnataka. Striking greenery!
Even with so many diverging views about rival parties, both @BJP4Karnataka and @INCKarnataka supporters have an almost similar position on cm @siddaramaiah's state flag move. Most I spoke with in this region expressed discomfort on flag push. State pride, yes. But 🇮🇳 is flag!
