BBMP Elections: Why your vote could have made a difference

I was going through the election results in ToI and it was clear why my vote would have mattered in the elections. Though it is an another issue that I didn't vote because despite of applying twice for my name inclusion in voter list, it didn't happen. Anyway, scanning through the list shows that in one area one candidate has won by just 9 votes (Karisandra seat). Had 10 more people voted in favor of the candidate who lost, it would have changed the result. There is one more who won by 49 votes and there are few others who also won by narrow margin. So if few hundred had voted more, it could have altered the results in a big way. All I want to say that "My Vote Matters, Your Vote Matters and It surely can make a difference". So please go out and vote in the next elections -- be it state, centre or city.
