This assembly election produced a hung house — a result where no single party wins enough seats to govern alone.

The Indian National Congress (I) edged ahead, winning 13 of the 30 seats on offer.

Its nearest rival, the People's Party of Arunachal, matched it exactly, also winning 13 seats.

Neither reached the 16-seat mark needed to govern alone.

The previous election's winning party did not return to power, and the new assembly split three ways instead.

3 parties won seats in all, and 4 more went to independent candidates.

The INC(I) was contesting its first election in the territory, yet still matched the PPA's tally.

A few numbers from this close election stand out.

The tightest race was in Tawang Ii, Arunachal Pradesh, decided by a margin — how far ahead the winner finished, in votes, over whoever came second — of just 14 votes.

At the other extreme, Tezu Hayuliang, Arunachal Pradesh was the most lopsided contest, with the winner ahead by 48.2% of the vote.

Turnout — the share of registered voters who actually cast a ballot — peaked in Basar, Arunachal Pradesh, at 84.4%.

The most crowded ballot was in Ziro, Arunachal Pradesh, where 7 candidates stood for the seat.

This election was still held under the same original assembly as the one before it.

Arunachal Pradesh's house stayed at 30 seats.

That matched the 30 seats from the previous election.
