Lok Sabha Elections 2019
In the 2019 Lok Sabha elections, the BJP-led NDA achieved a decisive victory, securing 353 out of 543 seats. The BJP itself won 303 seats. The Congress-led UPA was significantly behind, winning around 93 seats.
Lok Sabha Elections 2014*
The 2014 elections marked a historic victory for the BJP-led NDA, which ended the Congress-led UPA government’s decade-long rule. The NDA won 336 seats, while the UPA managed only 60.
Historical Inaccuracies of Exit Polls
Exit poll predictions are often taken with a grain of salt due to their potential for error. Instances of inaccurate predictions are not uncommon. However, in the 2019 and 2014 general elections, exit polls closely mirrored the actual results, capturing the overall national sentiment.
In 2019, the average exit poll predicted the National Democratic Alliance (NDA) would secure 306 seats and the United Progressive Alliance (UPA) 120 seats. The actual results were more favorable for the NDA, which won 352 seats, with the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) itself securing 303. The UPA ended up with 93 seats, with the Congress obtaining 52.
The 2014 elections saw a similar pattern. Although exit polls anticipated the NDA’s victory, they underestimated the margin. On average, eight exit polls predicted the NDA would win 283 seats and the UPA 105. The NDA exceeded expectations by winning 336 seats, with the BJP alone securing 282, while the UPA managed only 60 seats, and the Congress 44.
