As Rajasthan gears up for the November 25 assembly elections, ABP and CVoter reached out to the voters of the state to find out which party or alliance in their opinion will win the upcoming assembly elections in the state. 


In Rajasthan, where the Congress party is in power, 47.7 per cent of respondents think that BJP can win the upcoming assembly elections in the state, followed by 42 per cent of voters thinking that Congress could retain power. As many as 10.3 per cent of respondents did not express a clear opinion. 




ABP and CVoter further asked the voters which party they "disliked" so much, that they will never support it. As many as 39.8 per cent of respondents voted for Congress, followed by 32 per cent voting for BJP. On the other hand, 28.2 per cent of voters opted for "none." 




Earlier this month, the EC changed the schedule of polling for the Rajasthan assembly elections from November 23 to November 25 citing "large-scale" weddings and social engagements. The Election Commission stated in a statement that the decision was made in response to requests from various parties and social organisations for a change in the date of the poll "considering large-scale wedding/social engagements on that day (November 23), which may cause inconvenience to a large number of people, various logistic issues, and may lead to reduced voter participation during poll."


The counting of ballots will take place on December 3, as scheduled, along with four other state assembly elections.


On October 27, the ruling Congress in Rajasthan released five new assurances for the people of the state, promising to execute them if re-elected in the next Assembly elections. The promises included a godhan system similar to that of Chhattisgarh, in which the state government would acquire cow manure from cattle rearers for Rs 2 per kg.

The margin of error is +/- 3% at the macro level and +/- 5% at the micro level. We believe this will give the closest possible resemblance to the trends.]
