Chennai: Initial trends emerging from the count of postal ballots in Tamil Nadu show that the incumbent DMK regime is on course to win the polls and retain power under the leadership of Chief Minister and DMK President MK Stalin.
In several constituencies, the DMK was ahead, and it was closely followed by the main opposition AIADMK, according to television reports.
The fledgling TVK is ahead in several constituencies, with NTK led by Tamil nationalist Seeman yet to clearly find a place in the race to secure numbers.
