Kerala Local Body Election Results 2025
Kerala had elections to choose leaders for local areas like towns and villages.
People voted in two parts on December 9 and 11.
Many important people, like the Chief Minister, also voted.
Now, they are counting the votes to see who won.
The main groups are LDF, UDF, and NDA.
In the last election, LDF won the most.
This time, the results will show which group might win the bigger state elections soon.
The results are important because they can tell us what people in Kerala want for their future leaders.
The counting started on December 13, and everyone is waiting to see who will be in charge of their local areas.
The UDF is leading in many places, including the Thrissur Municipal Corporation, which is a big city.
The BJP is also doing well in some places, like the Thiruvananthapuram Municipal Corporation.
The results will help the political parties plan for the next big elections in 2026.
Kerala Local Body Election results are being counted across 244 centers and 14 collectorates.
Voting occurred in two phases on December 9 and 11 for 12,931 wards across 604 local bodies.
Main contenders are LDF, UDF, and NDA, with LDF winning the most in the 2020 elections.
Results are crucial as they indicate the political direction ahead of the state polls.

Election Performance
UDF
UDF secured victory in four corporations and led comfortably in several other local bodies, indicating a significant shift in Kerala's political landscape.
LDF
LDF faced a setback, losing ground in many rural and urban bodies that were previously their strongholds.
Voter Base Shifts
UDF
UDF managed to win back the Christian vote in central Kerala and gained support from Muslim voters due to LDF's perceived silence on key issues.
LDF
LDF suffered due to the alienation of Muslim voters and the 'switch' of the Christian vote, which traditionally supported them.
Campaign Effectiveness
UDF
UDF's campaign resonated well with voters, capitalizing on issues like the Sabarimala gold scandal and the Left's lackluster campaign.
LDF
LDF's campaign focusing on development and welfare planks failed to resonate with voters, despite their past successes.
