The congress has still not forgiven the communists for what they have done in 32 years... so inspite of alliance congress ditched the leftists ... congress managed more seats with lesser % of vote share...
Leftist are in 3rd position...
There are large section of people who took advantage during leftist rule and when they found that situation is getting bad they just switched the sides ... we call them opportunists and they do not have any ideology ... there are plenty of them ... they will even switch to BJP if time comes...
Left parties still has 30% of vote share, congress about 11 % and BJP about 10 %... TMC around 47 %So tell us where is the vote bank of Communist who voted them in power for decades ?

There are cases where they were supporters of CPI / CPM switched to BJP... they preferred to go with BJP rather than go to TMC [ a subset of congress] ... that was the level of hate for congress...A Bengali guy in DU told me that his family used to be the hardcore supporters of CPI but now they vote for Mamta.
