Voter Turnout
Polling for the 40-member Mizoram assembly was held on November 7, in which more than 80 per cent of the 8.57 lakh voters turned up. Christians constitute more than 87 per cent of the state's population.
Chief Minister Zoramthanga is confident the polls have got it wrong and says that there won't be a hung assembly in Mizoram and his Mizo National Front (MNF) will form government again.
