This is almost certainly more than one person

The dataset carries no candidate identifier, so every ballot line reading “KRISHNAN” is grouped by name alone. This record shows contests in 2 different states/UTs, a 59-year span across 9 contests, 5 different parties — patterns a single career can’t produce. Read each block below as its own thread, and treat the totals as counts for the name, not for a person.
