Election History · 8 November 2026
Before the 2027 election, a look back at the last one: the 2022 UP election was held in seven phases from 10 February to 7 March, with 61.03% turnout and counting on 10 March 2022.
The 2022 Uttar Pradesh Assembly election was held in seven phases between 10 February and 7 March 2022, and the votes were counted on 10 March 2022. The schedule was announced by the Election Commission of India on 8 January 2022. The phase-wise polling dates are a matter of public record — they are useful context for 2027, not a schedule for it.
| Phase | Polling Date | Seats |
|---|---|---|
| Phase 1 | 10 February 2022 | 58 |
| Phase 2 | 14 February 2022 | 55 |
| Phase 3 | 20 February 2022 | 59 |
| Phase 4 | 23 February 2022 | 59 |
| Phase 5 | 27 February 2022 | 61 |
| Phase 6 | 3 March 2022 | 57 |
| Phase 7 | 7 March 2022 | 54 |
| Counting | 10 March 2022 | 403 |
Overall voter turnout in 2022 was 61.03%. The Bharatiya Janata Party won 255 seats, the Samajwadi Party 111 seats, the Bahujan Samaj Party 1 seat and the Congress 2 seats; the remaining seats went to smaller parties and allies, including Apna Dal (Sonelal) with 12 seats. The BJP's alliance (NDA) won 273 seats in total.
| Party | Seats Won (2022) | Vote Share (2022) |

Nothing about 2022 predicts 2027. The number of phases, the polling dates and the result for 2027 will all be decided by the Election Commission and the voters. This post is published only so readers can check the last election's record in one place — and so that old 2022 dates are not mistaken for 2027 dates.
In seven phases from 10 February to 7 March 2022, with counting on 10 March 2022.
