What is counted
The press note
The district figures on these pages are from the press note on the draft roll of the Chief Electoral Officer (CEO), Maharashtra, dated 31 August 2026. The CEO keeps the state's rolls for the Election Commission. The note's first annexure gives the draft roll of each of the 36 districts by sex. The second gives, for each district, the enumeration forms that were not collected. Every elector on the roll before the revision was given an enumeration form to fill in and return, and an elector whose form was not collected is left off the draft. So the forms not collected are the names left off. Both annexures were read from the note's text and checked against the printed pages row by row.
The roll before the revision
The note gives the roll before the revision for the state only, names. A district's roll before is therefore taken as its draft plus its names left off. Added up over the 36 districts, that comes to the state's figure exactly, so no name is unaccounted for.
How the tables were checked
The site is not built unless every check holds. The two annexures must list the same 36 districts in the same order. In every district, men, women and third-gender electors must add up to the draft. The districts must add up to the note's state figures, which are on the draft, left off and before. The percentages printed in the note must follow from the counts.
The constituencies and the reasons
Two more of the CEO's documents give every one of the 288 constituencies. A statement enclosed with its press note of 16 September 2026 gives each constituency's roll before the revision and its names left off. The tables of 1 September 2026 give the draft roll of each constituency by sex, and the names left off by the five reasons entered, for each constituency and each district. The five reasons are shifted for good, untraceable or absent, dead, already enrolled at another place, and other. All three were read from the documents' text. A reason is what the officer wrote down, and nobody checked it.
How the constituency tables were checked
Every table must hold each of the 288 constituencies once, under the district the Election Commission lists it in. In every constituency the roll before less the names left off must equal the draft in the table by sex, the five reasons must add up to the names left off, men, women and third-gender electors must add up to the draft, and the percentage the CEO printed must follow from the counts. The constituencies must add up to their district's figures in the press note in every column, the reasons to the district table of reasons, and the 38 seats of the CEO's later list to the same figures. The constituency table spells Vikramgad as "Vekramgrth", and the pages use the Commission's spelling.
The 2024 result
Winner, runner-up, winning margin, electors and votes for every seat are from the Election Commission's statistical report for the Assembly election of November 2024. Turnout is votes over electors. The names left off at turnout are the names left off scaled down by that turnout, because not everyone on a roll votes. Larger than the margin means large enough to decide a seat, never that it did.
Notices and dates
The notices are from the CEO's release of 4 September 2026, which counts by district the electors with an anomaly and those with no mapping to the last intensive revision. Each district's two lists add up to its total, and the districts to the state's 1,22,24,007. No count of notices by constituency was found. The dates are from the note, and the later ones from the Commission's letters of 26 September and 12 October 2026, which moved the last day for claims and objections to and the final roll to .
District names
The pages keep the note's spellings. Three districts have since been renamed. Aurangabad is now Chhatrapati Sambhajinagar, Ahmednagar is Ahilyanagar and Osmanabad is Dharashiv, and the finder takes either name.
The maps
The overview's map draws each of the 288 constituencies from DataMeet's assembly constituency map (CC BY 2.5 India), simplified, and every shape's number was checked against the constituency's name. The district pages' map joins the same boundaries by the district each constituency belongs to in the Election Commission's own list, and draws each district as the union of its constituencies. DataMeet's map is older than Palghar district, so it puts Dahanu, Vikramgad, Palghar, Boisar, Nalasopara and Vasai in Thane. The Commission's list places them in Palghar, and so does the map. It also places Warora in Chandrapur, where its two tehsils are. DataMeet's map also carries 14 small shapes with no constituency number, creeks and islands round Mumbai, Thane and Raigad, and each is given to the district DataMeet names for it.
What these tables cannot show
- Why the names in any place were left off. The reasons are what the officer wrote down, and an elector entered as absent may have moved or may have been out when the officer called.
- How many notices were sent in each constituency. The notices were published by district only.
- Whether women, the old or the young were left off more often. The names left off are not split by sex or age at any level.
- How many of those left off will be put back. The final roll is not out.
- Whether each removal was right. A reason is what the officer wrote down, and nobody checked it.
