The larger turnout in urban areas in the fourth phase, including Mumbai, compared to 2014 and 2009, could mean good news for the BJP-Shiv Sena alliance. The turnout recorded in the fourth phase is 57% (provisional), against 55.59% in 2014. Former Mumbai Congress chief Sanjay Nirupam said Dalits, Muslims and North Indians have voted for Congress and NCP candidates. Like Mumbai, the voting percentage in tribal constituencies, such as Nandurbar and Dindori has witnessed a rise in percentage of the voting. The EC expects updated voter turnout for the fourth phase to improve by 2% .
