Maharashtra Assembly elections 2024 | CSDS-Lokniti Survey: National vs State-level choices — the role of leadership in alliance politics

The Hindu  

While Assembly elections are about State issues and State-level leaders, it is often that national-level leaders play a critical role in State-level choices. In the recently-concluded Maharashtra Assembly elections, more than four voters mentioned that their vote choice was shaped by considerations of national leadership. Of late, Assembly elections are also often centred around the question as to who will be the next Chief Minister. Mr. Uddhav Thackeray was endorsed by close to one of every five respondents and Devendra Fadnavis was mentioned as the preferred Chief Minister choice of a little over one-sixths. The differences within the MVA were evident with one in every 10 even favouring Mr. Shinde as the preferred Chief Minister.
