Tamil Nadu Election 2026 Winners
Actor-turned-politician Vijay’s Tamilaga Vettri Kazhagam (TVK) is currently delivering a political earthquake in Tamil Nadu, emerging as the single largest party in the 234-member Assembly and disrupting the decades-long dominance of the DMK and the AIADMK.
According to early counting trends, the TVK was leading in 101 seats, the AIADMK in 73 while the DMK was ahead in 50 seats.
The AIADMK was in second position with leads in 58 seats, while the ruling DMK slipped to a distant third with leads in just 34 constituencies in early counting trends.

The PMK was ahead in four seats, while the Congress was leading in three.
The trends pointed to a massive political upset, with Vijay’s party making deep inroads across Chennai, western Tamil Nadu, the Cauvery delta region and parts of the southern belt.
TVK candidates were leading in several high-profile constituencies including Kolathur, where Chief Minister M.K. Stalin was trailing to TVK’s V.S. Babu after the initial rounds of counting. Udhayanidhi Stalin was also trailing in Chepauk-Thiruvallikeni, further underlining the scale of the setback faced by the DMK.
