Despite the spirited election campaign by Aam Aadmi Party, Bharatiya Janata Party and Congress, voter turnout remained dismal on poll day in Delhi. As voting ends in the national capital, exit polls predict AAP comfortably winning 2020 Delhi Asembly elections, with BJP being a distant second. All the while, Congress is once again looking to draw a blank.
A party will need at least 36 seats to stake a claim to power in the 70-strong Delhi Legislative Assembly. In the last Assembly elections in 2015, AAP registered a landslide victory by winning 67 seats, whereas BJP was limited to three seats. Congress could not win even one seat.
