Tamil Nadu conducted its Assembly elections on April 23, 2026, with a remarkable voter turnout of over 85%. The elections are primarily a contest between the Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam (DMK), led by Chief Minister MK Stalin, and the AIADMK, headed by Edappadi K Palaniswami. Notably, new political players like Vijay's Tamilaga Vettri Kazhagam (TVK) and Senthamizhan Seeman's Naam Tamilar Katchi (NTK) are also vying for seats.
