Clean sweep for third time

The Hindu : Tamil Nadu News : Briefly: "For the third time in five general elections, one front has swept all seats in Tamil Nadu. The Democratic Progressive Alliance led by the Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam won all 39 seats this time. In 1996, the DMK-led front, including the Tamil Maanila Congress and the Communist Party of India, similarly emerged victorious in all constituencies. In the 1991 election, the All-India Anna Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam-Congress alliance recorded the score of 39-0. "
