Tamil Nadu's urban-rural voter divide: What's the latest data
Urban vs rural 
It's a reminder that where people live (and move) really shapes who gets counted.
Urban seats in the north and west were especially affected because more people are moving out of cities.
In contrast, rural spots like Nagercoil and Madurai (East) barely changed.
Even Scheduled Caste constituencies saw smaller drops, usually under 13%.
So if you're wondering why your city's voting numbers look different this year, it's mostly thanks to migration and cleanup of old records.
With urban areas losing voters faster than rural ones (Selected constituencies recorded about a 12.9% reduction versus about 10.9% statewide), the changes could impact elections and how voices are represented across Tamil Nadu.
