By-Poll Election Results 2026 Date & Time: As the by-elections for the year 2026 taking place in Tamil Nadu, West Bengal, Puducherry and Assam have already been done with voting, they have now reached the most crucial phase which is counting.
On October 6, voting was done in five Assembly constituencies and one Lok Sabha constituency. The ECI of India has set October 9, 2026, as the day for counting and declaration of results. These elections are significant from a political point of view since some of these seats had become vacant due to change of constituency or party for some elected MLAs/MPs.
