The way we are seeing Arunita's popularity, I am increasingly feeling that the reports of 30 cr votes for PD v/s 3 cr for all the rest seem grossly exaggerated. I have a feeling that that #1 and #2 must have been close, but just outside the range of statistical significance where they could have passed it off as joint winners.
I mean, do you even think it is remotely possible!
Just do the maths.
Everyone had 1300 votes to give if they fully participated. So 230, 769 people would have voted (say).
So, 210,000 would have voted for Pawan.
So, 20,770 people voted for the other 5 participants
So, maybe 5,000 people voted for Arunita. Out of that maybe 100 where IF contributors/readers.
And Arunita had actually pipped Pawan a few times.
Only blind PD lovers would even remotely believe this maths. But there are a lot of them around.
