Will UDF return restore Kerala's alternating power pattern? Estimates vary, but the range broadly suggests the UDF could cross the halfway mark in the 140-member House, with projections spanning from around 70 seats at the lower end to close to 90 at the higher end. In contrast, the LDF is largely seen falling short, with projections indicating a ceiling below a simple majority. If these projections hold, the outcome would carry significance beyond a routine change of government. #Kerala #UDF #restore_Kerala #Kerala_alternating #power_pattern #UDF_return #return_restore #alternating_power #projections #Estimates_vary
