PTI Gains In By Elections Held On 17 July 2022 Well Explained With Data Analysis.

PTI has won 15 out of 20 seats in the By-Elections (2022) of Punjab. Some of the analysts are of the view that all these seats belonged to PTI in 2018 and in contrast to that, PTI lost 5 of them in 2022.

3: PTI: 40332

•PP-7 (Rawalpindi) in 2022•

1: PML-N: 68906

2: PTI: 68857

PML-N apparently won by 49 votes but reportedly, PTI will push for recounting as the margin is too tight and the result was delayed.

To conclude it all:

PTI: Directly won 8 new seats while retained 7 of their seats.

PML-N: Won 4 out which one was lost in the By-Elections. One from Rawalpindi is uncertain. 3rd is lost by PTI while 4th is won from an independent candidate.

Calling it a loss of PTI would be untrue as they have managed to bag an extra 8 seats for which they had to rely on independent candidates in 2018.

For PML-N, it is worrisome because most of their seats were in alliance with the parties part of the Pakistan Democratic Movement.

Some of the numbers might increase or decrease but I have tried to keep it as accurate as possible based on the currently available information.

Correction: In 2022, an independent candidate Asif Malik took the second position from PP-83 and not PML-N.
