The thug won the highest number of votes. Goes to show how "intelligent" the voters are.

Wednesday, 21 April 2010 04:05 AM

No wonder why UNP lost. They got the votes only from minority communities particularly from Muslims.

Wednesday, 21 April 2010 04:05 AM

Congrat's and no surprises for becoming the highest polled in Kandy. You deserve this for all the good work done. Keep up your good work. Good luck

Wednesday, 21 April 2010 03:32 AM

Mervin, Mahindananda, Punchinilame all got high preferences. Are Sri lankans sane?

Wednesday, 21 April 2010 03:30 AM

Congradulations Mahindananda you are a real hero. Continue with your good work.

Wednesday, 21 April 2010 03:29 AM

Wednesday, 21 April 2010 03:27 AM

Mahindananda 146,000
Mervyn Silva 158,000
Democraz'y is in full force in Sri Lanka. Our voters are brightest in the world.

Wednesday, 21 April 2010 03:24 AM

Mahindananda gets 146,000
Mervyn Silva 158,000.

This gives the sum up why the Demo'crazy is shining in Sri Lanka.

The sad situation in this country is that people hero worship the undesirable elements, at the end of the day people will get what they deserve.

Wednesday, 21 April 2010 03:21 AM

Elakiri. He deserved it.

Wednesday, 21 April 2010 03:19 AM

Wednesday, 21 April 2010 03:10 AM

Government of Tugs , fools, drug dealers, bookie owners, drug associates ,( baning liquor shops not drug suppliers.) , murders rapist, kidnappers.

Government of New Generation , Our future and our wealth.

well done Mahindananda

Wednesday, 21 April 2010 02:37 AM

So, it's survival of the fittest. It's very sad to see an educated & cultured person like Dr Sarath Amunugama at the bottom of the list. He would have made a fine Foreign Minister!

Wednesday, 21 April 2010 02:32 AM

Great that Dr Sarath Amunugama was able to make the list. He should be appointed Finance Minister. He's one of the very few in the PA list who is knowledgeable and very practical on affairs of the Economy.

Wednesday, 21 April 2010 02:20 AM

Thuggery and intimidation pays!

Wednesday, 21 April 2010 02:18 AM

Hakuna matata. Congrats.

Wednesday, 21 April 2010 02:17 AM

Great!!We need to pay tribute to the literate votes of Kandy!!Just like the most enlightened voters in Kelaniya!Hope we may not have to close the Liquor bars in Kandy! Or do just like his earth-while colleague, he could also first close and then reopen with his own selected goons to reciprocate for all that support
