Exit Polls 2024

In the Assembly elections 2024, the National Conference (NC) and Congress have joined forces by forming an alliance, while the People's Democratic Party (PDP) and Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) contested independently as key contenders in the race. 

The voting for the Haryana assembly in 2019 took place on October 21. The results were announced on October 24. The BJP formed a post-poll alliance with JJP and even other independent MLAs to form the government. In 2019, the BJP under Manohar Lal Khattar emerged as the single largest party but fell short of a majority. It won only 40 seats. Subsequently, it forged a post-poll alliance with Dushyant Chautala's JJP, which got 10 seats and seven other independent MLAs. INLD got only 1 seat while Congress managed to win 31 seats. 

In the 2014 assembly elections, polling was held on October 15, 2014, to elect 90 representatives. The results were announced on October 19 with the BJP winning absolute majority. A total of 1,351 candidates contested the Haryana assembly elections in 2014. Among 1,351 candidates 1,235 were male while 116 were female. No candidates from the third gender contested polls in 2014. Haryana assembly elections in 2014 came in the wake of the dominant victory of Prime Minister Narendra Modi in the Lok Sabha elections. The strong mandate of the Modi government was reflected in many states when the BJP won them back-to-back. Haryana was one among them. The BJP which had only 4 seats before 2014, clinched 47 seats in the elections and formed the government under new face Manohar Lal Khattar.

The Election Commission of India said on Thursday in a press statement that an overall 63.88 per cent voter turnout was recorded in the Assembly elections in the Union Territory of Jammu and Kashmir. The poll panel said that a voter turn of 69.69 per cent was recorded in the third phase held on October 1. Phase-1 and Phase-2 saw polling percentages of 61.38 per cent and 57.31 per cent, respectively.

Exit polls are important for several reasons. Firstly, they provide an early indication of election results before the official count is completed. Media outlets use this information to inform their audience about potential outcomes, generating significant public interest. Additionally, exit polls can also influence stock markets as well as the political discourse in the country. It is important to interpret Exit Polls with caution, as they can be affected by sampling errors, biases, and differences in voter demographics. While they provide useful insights and help set expectations, they should not be viewed as definitive predictors of election outcomes.

Exit polls are quick surveys conducted immediately after people vote, in an attempt to gauge the sentiments of voters following the exercise of their right to vote. Unlike regular opinion polls done before elections, exit polls ask voters who they actually voted for, making them more accurate. They typically start being released right after voting ends on final election day and are conducted by interviewing voters as they leave polling stations. In India, exit polls were almost developed indigenously by the pioneering Centre for the Study of Developing Societies (CSDS) in Delhi during the 1960s.
