The 2024 Indian general election was held in Tamil Nadu on 19 April to elect 39 members of the 18th Lok Sabha.[1] The results were announced on 4 June 2024, after the completion of six other phases of voting in other parts of the country.[2][3]

The Indian National Developmental Inclusive Alliance (INDIA), led by the Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam (DMK) in the state and the Indian National Congress (INC) nationally, won all the 39 seats—a second consecutive sweep for the alliance after the 2019 elections, in which they won 38. The opposing National Democratic Alliance (NDA), led by the federal ruling party, the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), did not win any seat; the official opposition party in the state, All India Anna Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam (AIADMK), lost the sole seat – Theni – that they had won when they were part of the NDA in the 2019.
