The Rajasthan assembly elections are due on 7th December, 2018. The state has a 200-member legislative assembly with the fight heating up between the BJP and Congress. Some important constituencies are Jaipur, Dausa, Sriganaganagar, Bikaner, Chhitorgarh.
With Vasundhara Raje struggling against both anti-incumbency, and internal tensions, the elections are being looked forward to in great anticipation. Opinion polls show a clear-cut advantage to Indian National Congress on two fronts. For one, the party is expected to win by a comfortable margin; secondly, Sachin Pilot has emerged as the people's foremost choice for the Chief Minister post. Out of the three states currently in the hands of Bharatiya Janata Party, opinion polls show Congress having the strongest hold on Rajasthan.

Rajasthan Election 2013
The Rajasthan assembly elections are due on 1st December, 2013. The state has a 200-member legislative assembly with the fight heating up between the BJP and Congress. Amongst the prominent constituencies is Jaipur, which will have BJP's chief minister (CM) designate Vasundhara Raje, who was Rajasthan's first woman CM from 2003-2008, fighting it out. Other important constituencies are Dausa, Sriganaganagar, Bikaner, Chhitorgarh, while some probable candidates are Girija Vyas, Ghanshyam Tiwari, C.P. Joshi.
Ashok Gehlot, the current CM belonging to the Congress is a challenger to Vasundhara Raje, but has only about 27 % support of the voters in the state for being the incumbent once again, although 55% voters are satisfied with his performance as per a recent pre-poll survey.
The survey also suggests that the BJP is likely to get 115-125 of the seats while the Congress' existing tally is likely to dip to about 68 seats. The BJP has already cleared the names of candidates for 60 seats and is adding more to the list. The Namo factor may make the BJP lose out on the Muslim vote, while adding on other castes to its current support list. The main votes that can tilt the scales towards any party are from the Rajput, Jat, Gurjar, Meena, and Brahmin communities.
