Assembly election exit polls results 2018 LIVE updates: Trends as soon as polling…

In the first few hours of polling, 56.17% voters had on Friday exercised their franchise in Telangana while 59.41% had voted in Rajasthan in assembly elections that could set the tone for the 2019 Lok Sabha polls.

The voting started at 7am in 13 Maoist-affected constituencies of Telangana and at 8am in other parts of the state and in Rajasthan. Initially slow, the voting picked up later with EVM glitches being reported from a few constituencies but polling was by and large smooth.

The two states are among the 5 states — others being Madhya Pradesh, Chhattisgarh and Mizoram — that went to the polls. Capping a high-decible campaign, the five voted in four-phase polls starting November 12 and the results will be known on December 11.

Earlier in the day, Prime Minister Narendra Modi tweeted urging voters to come out in large numbers to exercise their franchise.
