The office of Karnataka's Chief Electoral Officer published the draft electoral rolls on 24 August 2026 following the enumeration phase of the Special Intensive Revision (SIR), removing 19.48 per cent of the state's electors, or more than 1.07 crore voters, categorised as Absent, Shifted, Duplicate, Dead or Others (ASDDO). Bengaluru's rolls will shrink sharply, from an electorate of over 1.03 crore to just 56.11 lakh voters in the draft list. A further 20.35 lakh voters have been flagged for logical discrepancies and 23.45 lakh could not be mapped to the 2002 electoral roll; these voters will receive notices and hearings before the final rolls are published on 27 October 2026.
