Kuzhalnadan defeats sitting MLA Eldho Abraham by a margin of 6,161 votes
Mathew Kuzhalnadan of the UDF walked away with the Muvattupuzha seat, confronting the pro-incumbency wave, the vote share of sitting MLA, Eldho Abraham of the LDF, and a robust candidate fielded by Twenty20, who had the potential to woo the traditional vote base of both the UDF and LDF.
Mr. Kuzhalnadan, a doctorate holder in International Law and popular in news channel discussions, was trailing behind Mr. Abraham of the CPI, till Sunday noon. He swiftly caught up and won by a margin of 6,161 votes, garnering a total of 64,425 votes.
