Karnataka Election Results: Congress workers have started celebrating.
The Congress has crossed the halfway mark and seems on course to breach archrival BJP's lone southern citadel Karnataka with just a few rounds of voting left. In the 224-seat Karnataka assembly, a party needs to win 113 seats to form the government. The Congress has already raced ahead on 136 seats, while the BJP is leading on 63. Chief Minister and BJP leader Basavaraj Bommai has already conceded defeat and announced a detailed analysis of the results. "We have not been able to cross the mark. Once the results out, we will do a detailed analysis. We will find out the gaps and deficiencies, and we will reorganise the party and come back for the Lok Sabha elections," Mr Bommai said.
All the focus now will be on who the Congress pick as their Chief Ministerial candidate with both state chief DK Shivakumar and senior leader Siddaramaiah eyeing the spot. Today, Mr Shivakumar broke down and spoke about about delivering on a promise to the Gandhis. He also said he had not slept for three years, ever since he made the promise.
Former CM Jagdish Shettar, who quit the BJP after being denied to contest in the May 10 polls for the 224-member Assembly, was trailing in Hubballi-Dharwad Central by 35,000 votes. He was fielded there by the Congress.

Karnataka Elections: What Happened In 2018 Polls?
In the 2018 Karnataka assembly elections, BJP emerged as the single largest party with 104 seats. The Congress had 80 seats and JD-S 37. There was also one independent member, while the BSP and Karnataka Pragnyavantha Janatha Party (KPJP) had one seat each.
With no party getting a clear majority, the Congress and JD-S tried to forge an alliance. BJP's B S Yediyurappa staked claim and formed the government. However, it was dissolved within three days, ahead of a trust vote, as the BJP strongman was unable to muster the numbers.
Subsequently, the Congress and JD-S alliance formed the government with Kumaraswamy as chief minister. But the wobbly dispensation collapsed in 14 months, triggered by the resignation of 17 ruling coalition legislators who then defected to the BJP.
This enabled the BJP's return to power.
