Shankersinh Vaghela, who quit the Congress last month, said today that he hadn't voted for the party's Ahmed Patel in the Rajya Sabha election and twisted the knife by commenting: "Who will vote for a losing candidate," he said after casting his vote in Ahmedabad. Ahmed Patel, the political advisor to Congress president Sonia Gandhi, is seeking a fifth Rajya Sabha term but his chances of re-election are bleak, predicted Mr Vaghela. "He doesn't stand a chance, won't even cross 40... Even legislators currently with Congress will not vote for him," said the 77-year-old veteran, who delivered the first blow to the Congress by exiting the party last month.
