What if India followed US election system: What would 2014, 2019 and 2024 results look like?

IndiaTimes Friday, 8 November 2024 ()

How would key states like Uttar Pradesh, Maharashtra, and West Bengal, known for their significant populations, impact the results? In such a model, securing the majority vote in a few large states could potentially change the entire outcome, making India’s federal elections more strategic and less about direct popular support. With that in mind, let’s explore what India’s 2014, 2019, and 2024 elections might look like if they were held under an Electoral College system similar to that of the US.
