Tamil Nadu electers and voters details for each election years

31 Dec 2019 | 1 min read | by theDataTalks

The below bar chart has the details of electors & voters for each election years.

  • x-axis variable E-YOY (Election year on year)
  • Y-axis variable Total Electors & Voters

Electors - Citizens who have eligibility to votes

Voters - Electors who had cast their votes

If you look at the bar chart (Electors/Voters), the average increase in electors is calculated to 9.85% E-YoY (approximately), which is approximately 3.5% lesser growth when compared to India’s average elector’s growth of 13%. The average polling percentage of Tamil Nadu falls at 67%, which is approximately 7% higher when compared to India’s average polling percentage of 60%.

The above mentioned average values are calculated without considering 1951 data since there was a major change in constituencies in 1953.

The total voters in the bar chart for the year 1951 & 1957 were back-calculated from reported polling percentage since Tamil Nadu had dual member & single-member constituencies.


Male & Female voters:

1951 & 1957 male/female voting values are not available; hence we have taken data from the year 1962.

The line chart clearly shows that the male & female voting percentage is traveling parallel to each other.

Female voters in 2011 & 2016 were slightly more than male voters and it shows women in Tamil Nadu have started showing more social responsibility.

The average percentage of male voters is calculated to 71.31%, which is 11.31% higher when compared to India’s average polling percentage of 60%.

The average percentage of female voters is calculated to 67.48%, which is 7.48% higher when compared to India’s average polling percentage of 60%.
