The counting of votes will take place on December 23, 2019.

The five-year term of the current Jharkhand legislative assembly is scheduled to expire on January 5, 2020.

The Jharkhand legislative assembly has a total strength of 81 seats, out of which 9 are reserved for SC and 28 for ST.

As per the final electoral rolls published by January 2019, Jharkhand has 2.265 crore electors, out of which 1.187 crore are male voters, 1.080 crore are female voters, 40,336 are service voters.

Chief Minister Raghubar Das-led Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) is hoping to retain power in the state. BJP is widely expected to contest the election in an alliance with the All Jharkhand Students Union (AJSU)

The BJP-AJSU alliance is being challenged by Opposition parties such as former chief ministers Shibu Soren and Hemant Soren’s Jharkhand Mukti Morcha (JMM), the Indian National Congress and the Jharkhand Vikas Morcha (Prajatantrik) (JVM-P).

The three parties had contested the 2019 Lok Sabha election in an alliance and are expected to fight in this formation again, with the possibility of the Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD) joining hands

BJP’s ally in Bihar, the Janata Dal (United), has said that it will contest all 81 seats alone.
