According to sources if you look at the overall polling percentages, YSR Congress got 51%, Telugu desam carved 39% and Janasena got a mere 6.5% of votes. Even though one might argue that even TDP and Janasena clubbed together, it can't beat YSRC, this is not the math one should look at.
Furthermore in many places, including Bhimavaram where pawan kalyan lost the mandate to YSRC candidate with a margin of 2700+ votes, the very first thought is that, support from TDP would have done miracles. Meanwhile Grandhi Srinivas (YSRC) got 55700+ votes, pawan fetched 53,000 votes and TDP's Pulavarthi Ramanjaneyulu got 44,323 votes polled.
Moreover in other words, has Telugu Desam party and pawan kalyan joined hands, then the result would have been different altogether. Apparently Telugudesam men have earlier made a mockery of pawan over the Janasenani's comments that TDP won in 2014 due to him. Presently TDP has lost due to him as many believed that there is a secret pact between them.
