Election Commission of India Goes Digital to Deliver Election Results
The Election Commission of India (ECI) will present the trends and results of general elections of 5 assemblies in February – March 2017, through its website which will be active from 8.00 AM on Saturday.
The site will capture the number of votes secured by the candidates contested in elections round-wise and after compilation shows assembly constituency-wise, political party-wise, and candidate- wise trends.
The election results can also be accessed through the main website of the Election Commission of India.

ECI says for the first time it will provide analytics through interactive dashboard, which will deliver both data and analyses through its official website on Sunday.
The analyses will be presented in user-friendly, clickable infographics. The users can download data, files, and images for analysing the elections further at their end.
It will include comparative analyses between 2012 and 2017. The users will get constituency analysis with respect to participation of electors (constituencies with more female electors, constituencies by slabs of voter turnout, turnout by poll days) and candidates (gender-wise participants, winners, and major competitors).

To assess performance of political parties, analyses on seats won by them, the percentage vote-share in the State and the profile (Age and Social Category) of candidates fielded by them have been included. Candidates have been mapped to their constituencies and the votes polled in their favour.
