AP Polls: Alliance Gets More Share Than YSRCP

The elections in Andhra Pradesh have come to an end. The results are out now, and it is clear that the alliance has successfully come to power now. Meanwhile, there is a debate on the vote share that has been earned by different political parties.

In this context, the substantial difference in vote share underscores the outcome, which is that the people wanted to support the alliance. According to the official results, the alliance leads YCP by a significant margin of 16%, which is a historic achievement. The YCP received the fewest MLA seats for an AP-based party in the election immediately following their term in office.

Take a look at the vote shares from the AP polls:

TDP: 45.60%

YCP: 39.37%

JSP: 8.53%

BJP: 2.83%

INC: 1.72%

NOTA: 1.09%

The TDP alone holds a 6% lead over the YSR Congress. When combined with the JSP and BJP votes, this adds another 10%. Altogether, the TDP has created a mark against the existing government, saying that it is not functioning properly.

On the other hand, the YSRCP suffered a humiliating defeat in the polls, which will take time for Jagan to recover. Meanwhile, Chandrababu will take oath as CM on the 9th of this month.
