Prediction Notice

This is a data-based prediction model. It uses public historical results and measurable factors to provide an estimated probability.

What is Winning Probability?

It assigns each candidate a 0–100% chance of winning for a constituency by combining multiple signals.

Historical Performance

Past vote shares, results, and win/loss records (e.g., 2074 and 2079).

Organizational Strength

Party structure, alliances, continuity, and ground network.

Current Indicators

Visibility, activity level, and constituency-specific dynamics.

Data Sources We Analyze

The model uses publicly available sources and structured datasets. These pillars contribute different signals into the final score.

Pillar 01

Historical Voting Records

Official results for 2074 and 2079 (PR votes, direct votes, vote share, win/loss patterns).

Pillar 02

Party Structure

Mergers/splits, alliances, candidate switching, and lineage mapping.

Pillar 03

Political Indicators

Visibility, activity, recent developments, and local dynamics.

How It’s Calculated

We compute a score for each candidate from multiple signals, then normalize it into a percentage share.

Calculation Steps

  1. 1

    Party Foundation

    Base score from PR vote strength and past win context.

    base = PR_vote × (won ? 1.6 : 1.3)

  2. 2

    Personal History

    Bonuses for wins, seat familiarity, and proven performance.

  3. 3

    Competitive Adjustments

    Visibility/activity and close-margin effects.

  4. 4

    Normalization

    Convert final scores into 0–100% probability share.

Winning Probability (0–100%)

Why New Candidates May Score Lower

Because the model relies on proven historical signals. New entrants have less verified voting history, so the model becomes less confident.

How to Read the Output

Score

Probability Score (0–100%)

Higher means stronger position; it is not a guarantee.

Confidence

Confidence increases when there is more historical data.

  • High Confidence Data Rich
  • Low Confidence Data Poor

Transparency

  • • This is a forecast, not an official result.
  • • Uses public Election Commission datasets and structured signals.

Limitations

  • • All forecasts have uncertainty; new parties are harder to model.
  • • Automated and neutral; no political bias intended.
