FROM SMASHING to awesome, querulous to confused and from unexpected to relief - These are some of the few words, which describe the mood of the electorate as the finality of the General Elections 2009 dawn upon them.
With no clear wave in favour of a particular party, the General Elections were expected to give a not so clear mandate to India. But the manner in which Indian voters outsmarted the political view point has evoked extreme reactions.
Merinews asked its readers to describe, just in one word, how they felt about the electoral victory and the response was overwhelming. The responses first stuck to a single word, than they shifted to a single sentence and finally to single paragraph as they people pored more and more of what was in their hearts.
An analysis of what the people said, makes it very clear that UPA victory is being viewed as unexpected but welcome and more people are delighted by it rather being unhappy.
Although a majority expressed happiness over the Congress victory, there was also many who opined that Congress had succeeded in befooling the people again.
