On the other hand, Andhra Pradesh may witness a record voter turnout in the 2024 elections. With the influx of migrants and NRIs returning to their hometowns, the voting percentage in this election could potentially increase further. During the 2019 elections, Andhra Pradesh saw a remarkable voter turnout of 79.7% in the assembly election, a significant rise from the 76% observed in 2014, nearly a four-point increase.
