New Delhi: It's the final day of the race to the Rashtrapati Bhawan. The counting of votes for the Presidential elections will take place today and the country will know who will replace Pratibha Patil. The Congress-led UPA has claimed its candidate - former Finance Minister Pranab Mukherjee - will win around 70 per cent of the votes in the direct contest with PA Sangma, the former Lok Sabha Speaker who is backed by some opposition parties.

Mr Mukherjee's victory is almost certain, especially after Mamata Banerjee-led Trinamool Congress announced its support to him. Other than all the UPA allies, parties such as Samajwadi Party and Bahujan Samaj Party as well as the Left are supporting the former Finance Minister.

The counting of ballots of MPs as well as the MLAs from all the states will begin at 11 am today in the capital this morning and the result is expected by late afternoon, according to officials. As per the norm, the ballot boxes from the states have been brought here for the counting.
