Where parties gained/lost
In 2012, the BJP won nearly all of the small but populous urban constituencies, while the constituencies with higher rural populations were more competitve. To win, Congress will need to remain competitive in rural Gujarat while increasing its vote share in the urban constituencies.
Margin of victory
Elections in Gujarat have become increasingly competitive over the years. The median margin of victory was about 22% in 1962. In 1995, when the BJP first came to power in the state, that figure was about 13%. By 2012, it had dropped to less than 11%. Will the trend continue this year?
