According to reports, CM Basavaraj Bommai, who is running for reelection for the fourth time in a row, has a strong electoral advantage.
However, after a high-decibel campaign during which all three key players in the fray-the incumbent BJP, the Congress, and the Janata Dal (Secular)-went at each other and pulled out stops and heavyweight campaigners to woo voters, the verdict in the battle for the Karnataka Assembly now rests with the people's court, and results will be out in a few hours, the report mentioned.
