Kerala delivered a decisive verdict in the 2026 Assembly elections, handing a sweeping mandate to the United Democratic Front after a decade in opposition. Polling was held on 9 April 2026 for all 140 seats, while counting took place on 4 May 2026. The UDF secured 102 seats, comfortably crossing the majority mark and recording one of its strongest performances in decades. The ruling Left Democratic Front was reduced sharply, while the National Democratic Alliance made limited gains. Several senior ministers from the outgoing government were defeated, making the result politically significant.
The verdict signals a clear anti-incumbency wave and opens a new phase in Kerala politics under a Congress-led coalition government.
