2011 Tamil Nadu legislative assembly election result
The 2011 Tamil Nadu Legislative Assembly election, held on April 13, 2011, resulted in a significant political shift in the state. The election was conducted to elect members of the 14th Tamil Nadu Legislative Assembly, and it marked a decisive victory for the Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam (DMK) party, which was part of the ruling alliance. The DMK, led by Chief Minister M. Karunanidhi, faced a strong challenge from the All India Anna Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam (AIADMK), headed by J. Jayalalithaa. Ultimately, the AIADMK coalition won a landslide victory, securing 203 out of 234 seats, allowing Jayalalithaa to assume office as Chief Minister for a second term. This election was notable for its high voter turnout and the introduction of electronic voting machines across the state, emphasizing the importance of technology in Indian elections.
