Against Odisha's previous Vidhan Sabha election (1990), matched constituency-for-constituency
- Retained55 (37%)
- Changed hands89 (61%)
- New seat3 (2%)
55 constituencies were won by the same party as last time; 89 changed hands. 3 did not exist at the previous election.
India’s constituencies have not been redrawn since the 2008 delimitation, so this compares the same seat boundary both times.
