Tamil Nadu’s 2026 Assembly election results show Tamilaga Vettri Kazhagam (TVK), led by actor-turned-politician C. Joseph Vijay, emerging as the single largest party. Multiple outlets describe the election as a historic shift, with the new entrant outperforming the state’s traditional Dravidian parties, DMK and AIADMK. The Hindu reports that TVK’s electoral debut produces a hung Assembly and ends decades of DMK–AIADMK dominance, with TVK also delivering a strong performance in Chennai. In one report focused on Chennai, TVK is said to win all but two of the 16 assembly constituencies in the capital. Another report provides the broader party outcome, listing TVK as the top vote-getting party by seat count and highlighting its place as the largest in the House. Times of India adds that Vijay clears a crucial floor test with backing from 144 MLAs, including support from several parties and a rebel AIADMK faction, positioning the result as the first coalition government led by the new entrant. The reports collectively portray TVK’s rise as decisive, though details on the full seat breakdown vary by outlet.
