Aizawl, December 4:┬аThe Mizoram Assembly Election Results 2023 will be declared by the Election Commission of India (ECI) today, December 4. In the wake of the recently concluded Mizoram Assembly Elections, the political landscape in the state is buzzing with anticipation and speculation. The total of 40 seats up for grabs has seen fierce competition among the major political players, with the Mizo National Front (MNF) and Zoram People’s Movement (ZPM) vying for dominance.
The main contenders for power in the state are the MNF led by incumbent Chief Minister Zoramthanga, the ZPM headed by Lalduhoma, and Congress led by Lalsawta at the helm.┬аTo form a government in the state, a party must attain the majority mark, which stands at 21 seats, adding to the complexity of the race.
The Exit Poll Results
The exit poll results have thrown up diverse scenarios, adding an element of suspense to the electoral narrative. While India Today-My Axis India predicts a clean sweep for ZPM with a projected range of 28 to 35 seats, Republic-Matrize foresees a victory for MNF with 17 to 22 seats.

Counting Date Shift
One of the significant developments in the election process is the change in the vote-counting date. The Election Commission, in response to multiple representations, moved the counting date from December 3 (Sunday) to December 4 (Monday). The decision was grounded in the acknowledgement of December 3 (Sunday) as a day of special significance for the Christian-majority state of Mizoram.
MNF vs ZPM: Who Will Form Government?
As Mizoram eagerly awaits the verdict on December 4, the burning question is whether MNF, under the leadership of Zoramthanga, can secure another term in office or if ZPM, led by Lalduhoma, will rise to the occasion and form the government. With the fate of Mizoram hanging in the balance, all eyes will be on the counting day to determine which political force will shape the state’s future for the next term. The election results, eagerly awaited by the citizens, will unveil the political destiny of Mizoram and set the course for the state’s governance in the coming years.
The 2018 assembly election results set the stage for the current electoral showdown, with MNF securing 26 seats, ZPM obtaining eight, Congress winning five, and BJP managing to clinch one seat. The question now is whether MNF can retain its stronghold or if ZPM will emerge victorious and take charge of the government this time around.
