The survey will give a complete national picture as to who will win if polls were conducted in Kerala.

There are 20 seats for the Lok Saha polls in the state.

The UPA (Congress+UDF) is projected to win 17 seats out of 20 in the states. the LDF is likely to win 3 seats, leaving no seats for the NDA.

Considering the fact that Sabarimala has been a core issue in Kerala, where both BJP and Congress have stood with devotees against the Supreme Court's verdict permitting women aged 10-50 to offer prayers at the temple for the first time in centuries, the saffron party is projected to have been unable to make a mark. 

Vote share:

UPA: 42.8% 
NDA: 22.0%
LDF: 22.0%
Others: 13.3%

Projections for the month of January: 

Seat Share:

UPA: 16 seats
NDA: 0 seats
LDF: 4 seats
In terms of vote share, UPA stands with 40.1%, NDA with 19.7% and LDF with 29.3%.
