After a lacklustre performance till noon, voting pace in the Delhi assembly elections picked up after lunch, as the voter turnout recorded till 4pm has been 44.76 %. However, the record is very low as compared to the 2015 assembly elections in the capital.

In 2015, 51.2%% vote percentage was recorded till 3 pm.

The Delhi election campaign, which ended in the evening of February 6, saw the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) aggressively raising the anti-CAA protests at Shaheen Bagh as a poll issue, and the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) hard-selling development as its poll plank.
Meanwhile, as Delhi votes for its new government today, BJP chief Manoj Tiwari said “vibrations” and “sixth sense” told him his party would come to power in the capital. Beaming confidence that under his leadership, the Bhojpuri filmstar-singer-politician, however, avoided any response on whether he would be chief minister.

“Today I sense vibrations from all sides. Those who believe in sixth sense…today it is my sixth sense telling me that this time, a BJP government will be formed,” Tiwari told reporters near a polling station. “We will win 50-plus seats and form a government with people blessing Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s leadership,” he added.

When asked about the chief minister, he said, “Ho jayega, bahut accha hoga (There will be someone, someone very good).”
There are 672 candidates in fray for 70 Assembly seats in Delhi. Over 14.7 million total registered voters in the city include 8.11 million males, 6.7 million females, 869 of the third gender, 11,608 service voters, and 204,830 senior citizens (aged 80 years or more), according to Delhi CEO Office.

While various media outlets will declare their exit polls in the evening, the official Delhi election results will be declared on Tuesday.
