The mainstream media and the Indian Blogarena (did I miss the hyphen?? no it looks better this way... Voila!! typo turned Coined term... ingenious) is abuzz with news-n-views, reports-n-retorts about why Mumbai voter turnout has decreased to APPROXIMATELY 44.21% (duh.. what an accurate approximation). All this despite awareness campaigns like Jaago Re.
Thousands of speculations floating around everywhere. Thankfully, a certain INDIA TV (name changed on request.. or may be not) did not blame ALIEN TERRORISTS from Mars (like the "Kya alien bhi doodh peete hain" thingie.. ewww)

Let me add my own reasons to it... or rather one of my idol's views on it... presenting six year old Calvin (applause)
Calvin: THESE ARE INTERESTING TIMES. WE DON'T TRUST THE GOVERNMENT, WE DON'T TRUST THE LEGAL SYSTEM, WE DON'T TRUST THE MEDIA, AND WE DON'T TRUST EACH OTHER! WE'VE UNDERMINED ALL AUTHORITY, AND WITH IT, THE BASIS FOR REPLACING IT!
Hobbes: "INTERESTING" IS A MILD WAY OF PUTTING IT.
Calvin:IT'S LIKE A SIX-YEAR-OLD'S DREAM COME TRUE!
PS: The lady at my election 'OUTPOST' seemed to be a manicurist.. I walked out with a fully blackened 1.5 inches of nail with same amount of skin to go with it.
PS2: They messes up the addresses real bad this time.. putting about 100 citizens in each house address(cost cutting?? what did they do with the rest of the addresses.. i smell ALIENS again)
Somebody gimme a PS3 ;)
