The BJP is on track to secure a historic third consecutive term in Haryana, surprising many by defying exit poll predictions that had anticipated a sweeping victory for the Congress. Despite entering the elections burdened by a decade of anti-incumbency sentiments, a lackluster performance in the recent Lok Sabha elections, and a vigorous campaign from the Opposition, the BJP has managed to maintain its ground against formidable adversaries. Current trends suggest that, if they translate into final results, concerns over issues such as ‘Jat anger’, dissatisfaction with the government stemming from the Agnipath scheme, the farmers’ agitation, and protests from wrestlers have not significantly swayed the electorate. Remarkably, the BJP’s vote share stands at approximately 39%, surpassing the 36.49% it received in the 2019 elections. This resilience indicates a strong support base and suggests that the party’s strategies have resonated with voters, despite the challenges they faced during the campaign.
