Who Won the Chikkodi Lok Sabha Election 2014
The 2014 election was won by Prakash Babanna Hukkeri from Indian National Congress who secured 474373 votes. The person who got a few votes less than him was from Bharatiya Janta Party, Ramesh Vishwanath, who got 471370 votes.
The parties who secured most of the votes in the Chikkodi Lok Sabha Election 2014 were:
| Party | Candidates | Votes | Percent |
| INC | Prakash Babanna Hukkeri | 4,74,373 | 44.72 |
| BJP | Ramesh Vishwanath Katti | 4,71,370 | 44.43 |
| NCP | Prataparao Patil | 42,738 | 4.03 |
| JD(S) | Shrimant Balasaheb Patil | 39,992 | 3.77 |
It is clearly visible that the INC won by just a few votes in 2014 and later on in 2019, they were defeated by the BJP. But if I tell you about the 2009 election results, it was Ramesh Vishwanath Katti from the BJP who won.
It is quite difficult to predict who will win in the 2024 elections in Chikkodi, but we collectively may have some guesses.
