THIRUVANANTHAPURAM: In a pre-poll survey conducted by the Mumbai-based VoteVibe, Thiruvananthapuram Congress Lok Sabha member Shashi Tharoor is the most preferred candidate for the Chief Minister's post in the state and the anti-incumbency sentiment is high.
Assembly polls will be held in Kerala in April/May 2026 and the survey was conducted to gauge the mood of the people in the state ahead of the crucial elections.
The survey has found that both major political fronts (the ruling CPI(M)-led Left and the Congress-led UDF) face significant leadership challenges that could impact their electoral prospects.
