Settler voters’ support helps young candidate beat UDF’s Cheriya Mohammed
Left Democratic Front (LDF) candidate Linto Joseph emerged winner with a majority of 4,643 votes in Thiruvambady Assembly constituency on Sunday. Mr. Joseph secured 67,867 votes against UDF candidate C.P. Cheriya Mohammed who finished second with 63,224 votes. As expected, the support of settler voters turned out to be crucial for the victory of Mr. Joseph. By fielding a young candidate from such a rural family, the Left Democratic Front (LDF) gave the toughest challenge to its UDF rival. For Mr. Joseph, the confidence factor was his image as an active youth volunteer. His role as the president of Koodaranhi panchayat had also helped him in his own village in a very short span of time.
