text: when will be the tamil nadu elections?   if i'm reading the site of the election commission of india correctly, it looks like the vote/poll happens on may 8th. if you go to their state page at http://www.eci.gov.in/may2006/index_st.htm and click on tamil nadu, it will give the schedule of events along with all the parties involved.  i also found the website for the office of the chief electoral officer for the government of tamil nadu (link below), they might be able to provide more information like absentee ballots (if possible). good luck, i hope this helps!  http://www.tn.gov.in/elections/
