MR has already taken a flight to India? Does that says anything? Why MR is attending Puja's in India ??

It won't be on 27th morning if there is an announcement of annulment! Hope it won't happen, I don't know what would happen if both the candidates manage to poll less than fifty percent of the polled votes, how many would have marked second preference?

The only way to teach the present regime a lesson is to make it : SF - 75% All the others together - 25%

Saturday, 23 January 2010 09:10 AM

As of my evaluation final results would be SF 50.29% & MR 48.63%..

Saturday, 23 January 2010 08:55 AM

sf 53.81%
mr 47.17%

without jafna....

these people wanted to create another Iran type environment in Sri Lanka. Why dont you publish the counting as on time like before??? Cheap politics... Lets hope for the best, I mean SF win.

Saturday, 23 January 2010 07:18 AM

SF will win definitely, if it is a fair election.
MR has all the power to do Election violence

Saturday, 23 January 2010 06:29 AM

Machan, SHAK. Bravo saying of the day. If MR see this he will faint. I think 54%. Keep up building the moral and support for SF. I think this is the best time to start a fire-cracker business, can earn quick money for the whole year.

Saturday, 23 January 2010 06:23 AM

Yes already the goons have parked two flights at Katunayake, to escape on 27th after hearing the defeat.

Saturday, 23 January 2010 05:42 AM

Saturday, 23 January 2010 05:14 AM

From day SF entered presidentail campaign government has made lot of mistakes.Why is the government paniking so much? Why are they wasting so much of money for what?

The Elections Commissioner has done his math! (No need for re-counts.) Declare it as it comes!

Saturday, 23 January 2010 12:08 AM

May God help us!

Friday, 22 January 2010 10:50 PM

Just enough time for SF to catch a flight to the USA !

Friday, 22 January 2010 10:48 PM

Shak, if SF has 51%, then MR will have 151% !

Friday, 22 January 2010 09:49 PM

Hope the losing party won't make foolish excuses to create violence on the streets!

Friday, 22 January 2010 08:32 PM

Dont worry sir ... SF - 65% !

Friday, 22 January 2010 07:24 PM

HAVE A LIVE TELECAST!

Friday, 22 January 2010 06:53 PM

Yes SF is whom SL wants and it should be 53% for & 45% against, with the remainder to the others!

Friday, 22 January 2010 05:29 PM

Yes ... I can believe your fair prediction! Lots of village people will vote for Mahinda ... But, the MAJORITY Tamil votes + Muslim votes + Catholic votes & those of the people who hate all the old politicos, will go to SF! So, SF will win, by a narrow margin!

Friday, 22 January 2010 05:11 PM

SO WHY NOT SHOW THE LIVE RESULTS? WHO OR WHAT IS BEHIND THIS SINISTER MOTIVE?

Friday, 22 January 2010 03:47 PM
