Millions of Pakistanis cast ballots on February 8 to choose their members for the nation’s National Assembly as well as the four provincial assemblies.
Following the polling, the ballots were counted, and after around three days, all of the results for the National Assembly seats were finished.
The National Assembly results for 264 of the 266 seats have been declared, based on the provisional results. The death of a candidate prevented an election from being held in NA-8, one seat, and the Election Commission of Pakistan (ECP) delayed the results of another.
As of now, results have been released, and 101 seats have been won by independent candidates. It is noteworthy that nine of these 101 independent candidates are general independents, and 92 of them have the backing of the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf. With 75 seats, the PML-N is in second place, while the PPP has gained 54 seats.
Pakistan’s results showed that the MQM won 17 seats, the JUI won 4, the PML-Q won 3, while the Istehkam-e-Pakistan Party and Balochistan National Party each got two seats. Additionally, one seat each was won by the MWM, National Party, PML-Z, Balochistan Awami Party, Pashtunkhwa Milli Awami Party, and Pashtunkhwa National Awami Party.
