schema:text	An image purportedly showing the number of votes received by candidates during the Coimbatore Lok Sabha Elections is being shared to claim that BJP leader K Annamalai received only one vote at a particular booth. Are these claims true?: No, the viral image has been edited to show Annamalai receiving only one vote at a particular booth in Coimbatore. The original image showed the leader getting about 101 votes. What led us to the truth?: We performed a Google Lens search and came across a similar image published on an unverified Instagram handle named 'minnambalam'. The image was posted on 4 June and its caption when translated to English said, "#MinnambalamExclusive: Coimbatore Constituency Status!." We found that 101 votes next to the CU number 312 and not one as seen in the viral image. Other sources: Team WebQoof performed an additional reverse image search and found a post shared by the official X handle of Sun News. Its caption when translated to English said, "#JUSTIN \| Coimbatore Lok Sabha Constituency - First Round Counting DMK Candidate Ganapathi Rajkumar Live..." The post, which was uploaded on 4 May, showed about 101 votes as opposed to one vote seen in the viral image. Updates on Coimbatore seat: The BJP leader lost against the Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam (DMK) candidate Ganapathi P Rajkumar by a margin of 1,18,068 votes on the Coimbatore Lok Sabha seat. You can read our live coverage here for more details. Conclusion: The image is edited and is being falsely shared to claim that Annamalai receiving only one vote at a particular polling booth in Coimbatore.
