Mumbai recorded a voter turnout of 54.89 per cent in the Assembly elections in 36 constituencies on Wednesday. Bhandup West, a Shiv Sena stronghold came on top with 62.88 per cent polling, and Colaba in South Mumbai finished at the bottom with 44.44 per cent.

Mumbai has historically struggled with low voter turnout. Not just in Assembly elections but also during the Lok Sabha elections. In the 2019 Lok Sabha elections, the city recorded a turnout of 55.4 per cent, which dropped to 52.4 per cent in 2024. Even in Assembly elections, the trend is consistent.
