State Legislative Assembly
By-elections
Assembly seats re-contested between general elections — after a death, resignation, disqualification or a void poll. This dataset holds 1,972 by-polled seats across 713 state-years, 1952–2026.
A by-election contests a handful of seats, not the assembly, so these pages show a results table rather than a map — and no majority, because no government was being formed. Seat and vote shares are of the seats contested in that by-poll.
