Jharkhand's JMM, led by power couple Hemant and Kalpana Soren, secured a second consecutive term. Despite challenges, the Sorens mobilized tribal sentiment and countered anti-incumbency.

The Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD) has emerged as a surprise element in the election, with candidates leading in five out of six constituencies. In 2019, RJD won only one seat, Chatra, through Satyanand Bhokta.

The JMM-led Mahagathbandhan has crossed the halfway mark as the alliance leads on 49 seats in the Jharkhand Assembly election, as of 10.40 am, according to the Election Commission of India.
