Karnataka’s electoral contest is closer than seat shares suggest
Live MintAs Karnataka goes to vote, it may be worth engaging with its complex electoral data. For instance, in the 2004 Lok Sabha polls, the Bharatiya Janata Party got about 64% of the state’s seats, but in the Vidhan Sabha elections held the same year, merely 35% seats. At one level, this indicates that the BJP is the preferred party in Karnataka for the Lok Sabha, while not as much during Vidhan Sabha elections. In the first one, we show the seat and vote share of the last four Lok Sabha and Vidhan Sabha elections in the state. But this graph also shows something far more interesting, which is that the Congress vote share is not significantly lower than the BJP’s even in Lok Sabha polls.
