With the nation having concluded the seven phases of the Lok Sabha elections 2019 in a period of 39 days, it is ready to welcome the next government and consequently the next Prime Minister of the country. 

542 seats of the lower house went to polls and the day has come for the results. This year, nearly 10 lakh polling booths were set up and around 84 million more voters were in the fray to exercise their franchise than the previous elections. Netizens are excited, some have also made references to the cult series 'Game of Thrones' and have called it the 'longest night' before the 'Last War'. One user wrote: "Excited and nervous, both at the same time, thinking about who will lead India for the next 5 years. Not just Indians, today, world will be eagerly waiting for the results of Lok Sabha elections, 2019. May the deserving person wins. #Electionresults2019" [sic], while the other said: "Today is the most exciting day in last five years of India. Over a billion people will be discussing only one thing throughout the day." [sic]

While the headline statistic revolves around the numbers the NDA and UPA get as the counting is underway, the road to determining that outcome contains some fascinating and compelling individual battles.
