Early trends in Tamil Nadu Assembly Elections 2026 show Vijay’s Tamilaga Vettri Kazhagam emerging as the single largest force, leading in 108 seats. The ruling Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam trails at 52, while All India Anna Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam holds 73 seats. TVK has dominated urban regions, including Chennai, and made gains in southern and rural constituencies. Vijay leads in Perambur and Trichy East, while Chief Minister MK Stalin trails in Kolathur. Several senior leaders across parties are also trailing. Celebrations erupted at Vijay’s residence, contrasting with subdued scenes at DMK offices. Though TVK expresses confidence of forming the government independently, it may fall short of the majority mark of 118, making post-poll alliances a key factor in determining the final outcome.
