This is what the exit polls had said:

Tripura would be a close contest between the BJP and the Left Front. The leads so far, support that.


Meghalaya where the Congress is in power, the JanKiBaat-NewsX exit poll shows that the National People's Party is set to gain with 23-27 seats; the CVoter exit poll predicts a close finish, with the Congress likely to get 13-19 seats and the NPP 17 to 23 seats. The JanKiBaat-NewsX exit poll says the BJP-NDPP alliance is likely to storm the ruling NPF bastion as it is predicted to win 27-32 seats with a vote share of 48 percent, against NPF's 20-25 seats.


In Nagaland, the exit poll claimed a victory for the NDPP-BJP which is likely to get 25-31 seats with 38.4 percent vote share and the NPF likely to bag 19-25 seats with a vote share of 27.1 percent.
