Following the electoral showdown, both the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) and Chief Minister Naveen Patnaik's Biju Janata Dal (BJD) are asserting their dominance, each claiming to have surpassed the majority mark in the state. Exit polls on the Odisha assembly elections and the Lok Sabha polls have thrown its weight behind the BJP predicting a major upset for BJD. The Odisha Assembly Election 2024 seeks to elect 147 members to the state Legislative Assembly. The BJD won 20 Lok Sabha seats in 2014 and 12 in 2019 out of 21. With nine members in the Rajya Sabha, it holds considerable influence. Voters are waiting to see whether Naveen Patnaik of the BJD will be able to secure the post of Odisha's Chief Minister for a record sixth time or the BJP, riding high on Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi's popularity will be able to achieve its set target of 75 seats. The Congress party, meanwhile faces a tough challenge to better its performance after disappointing results in the last two elections. PM Modi, Union Home Minister Amit Shah, Rajnath Singh campaigned across the state for the saffron party, while the Congress organized a rally led by the party president Mallikarjun Kharge, party leaders Rahul Gandhi and Priyanka Gandhi. Patnaik, who has been struggling with severe health issues due to old age, too campaigned in person and in virtual mode along with his aide VK Pandian. Modi and Patnaik, known for their longstanding amicable ties, engaged in a verbal exchange after the PM suggested that the Patnaik's health had worsened and hinted at a potential conspiracy. However, Patnaik, in a strict response, urged the PM to prioritise matters such as revising coal royalties and addressing Odisha's longstanding plea for special status, steering the conversation away from personal remarks. The Odisha CM is seeking re-election from his traditional Assembly seat of Hinjili as well as the newly chosen Kantabanji constituency. In its election manifesto, the saffron party highlighted its achievements during its 10-year rule at the Centre, focusing on schemes for farmers and tribals. The BJD manifesto emphasised youth employment, support for the middle class, food security, and agriculture. Meanwhile, the Congress focused on addressing unemployment and called for a socio-economic and caste census. In the 2019 Assembly elections, BJP made remarkable strides, securing 23 seats, a notable leap from its 10-seat tally in 2014. Congress on the other hand experienced a decline, securing just 9 seats in 2019 and slipping to the third largest party in the state. This was a drop from the 16 seats it held in 2014. How are votes counted? The elaborate counting process involves lakhs and corores of people voting in the elections. Thousands of officers participate in the counting of votes across different parts of India. However, the EC makes sure everything concludes smoothly. Vote counting is decentralised and done simultaneously at counting stations in each of the 543 constituencies around the country. Who oversees the counting process? The Returning Officer (RO) for each Parliamentary Constituency is responsible for overseeing the election process and counting the votes. Appointed by the Election Commission of India (ECI) in consultation with the State Government, the RO is usually a local government official or officer. They designate the location and assign counting centres based on the total number of votes. The RO is assisted by Assistant Returning Officers (ARO), who handle the counting of Electronic Voting Machines (EVMs) at one table, while the RO counts postal ballots at another. Each table also has a micro-observer, a counting assistant, and a counting supervisor, ensuring a fair and transparent process. Where does counting happen and how long does it take? Counting takes place at designated locations within each constituency, which can include government schools, colleges, or the headquarters of the RO. If there is a large number of voters, more counting centres can be allocated. The counting process begins at 8 am and continues until all votes are counted. Results are typically announced as soon as the counting is completed for each constituency. Trends usually become clear by the afternoon of the counting day and are broadcasted on television news networks, although the official count from the ECI may be released later in the day.
