Women voters outnumber men in 13 states and union territories

-The Times of India

NEW DELHI: Women voters outstripped men in as many as 13 states and Union territories in the Lok Sabha polls which concluded on Sunday. The new entrants to this club are Bihar and Uttarakhand, the only states in the north to figure on this list.

In 2014, 10 states and UTs had seen more women than men voting, but within the then undivided state of Andhra Pradesh, the part that now remains Andhra had also recorded a larger number of female voters than male. Thus, effectively 11 of the current states and UTs had witnessed this trend five years ago.

The current list is dominated by states and UTs in the south and northeast, the only exceptions being Goa and Daman & Diu in the west and the two northern states.
