State may witness close contests in many constituencies
Tamil Nadu's high voter turnout has raised questions about the closeness of this year's election results. The 2016 contest, with a margin of victory of just one percentage point between the ruling AIADMK and the DMK-led coalition, serves as a precedent for potential close races in 2023. The People's Welfare Front, Pattali Makkal Katchi, and Bharatiya Janata Party contested independently in 2016, contributing to a wider margin of victory for the AIADMK. This year, the presence of C. Joseph Vijay, founder of the Tamilaga Vettri Kazhagam, is expected to influence the outcome.
