Some update i got from my Houston friends living in Sugarland area where Mauli stays:
1. Most of Gujju community stays there and all have Z tv and watch Mauli. Though they sometime hate her...but they are voting her a lot
2. Most of them have unlimited SMS or limited SMS free in their service and they are using them fully
3. Desi community students are sent emails to vote for her and its quite successful
4. Its fun to vote as this is the first time people in US can vote and that too a Houstonian in the race! why not!
5. Remember Texas has more than 25K north indian population
6. Its summer vacation time and kids have full time to watch Mauli and vote for her
7. Apart from that consider other states in US where people watch SRGMP and vote for her! Gujjus especially!
8. Simple calculation...Assume approx 10000 people in US vote and say average people vote 10 votes...you got 1 lakh votes from US Itself! Then atleast 1-2 lakh votes come from India and abroad(UK, SAfrica, Aus etc..internet voting). ...So...she can easily get 3 lakh votes!!
Out of 15 lakh votes every week, if she gets 3 lakhs...then ITS NOT A MIRACLE THAT SHE TOPPED LAST WEEK! If the same continues...I bet she will stay another 3 more weeks!!!!
