How to read this. complete — seats match the expected count. OK · poll postponed — a seat was genuinely countermanded or postponed by the ECI; the data is correct. merge artifact — two genuinely same-named seats were merged upstream in the non-Lok-Dhaba source; these self-correct when Lok Dhaba publishes those years.
