If cross voting happens, the political math will get spoiled
The math has got spoiled after Milind Narvekar was made the candidate by Shiv Sena (UBT) in the Legislative Council elections. A candidate needs 23 votes to win the election. Shiv Sena (UBT) has only 15 MLAs of its own, on the other hand, NCP (AP)’s second candidate and NCP (SP) supported candidate Jayant Patil will also have to depend on MLAs of other parties for victory.

If there is cross voting during the Legislative Council elections, then Uddhav Thackeray and NCP (SP) supported candidate Jayant Patil will benefit the most.
