Tharoor shares survey projecting him as prospective Kerala CM candidate

Congress MP Shashi Tharoor on Wednesday appeared to raise quite a few eyebrows in political circles with a social media post on his supposed public support as the prospective Chief Ministerial candidate in Kerala.

He shared on his X profile the findings of a survey which projected him as the top choice as the Chief Ministerial candidate of the Opposition United Democratic Front (UDF). The Kerala Vibe Vote Survey 2026, which also indicated a strong anti-incumbency wave in Kerala, showed that 28.3% of those who took the survey chose Mr. Tharoor as the candidate of the faction-ridden UDF, as per the article shared by him.
