DMK's Chandhirakumar won Erode East by-election by 91,558 votes, seen as a prelude to 2026 Assembly elections.

The DMK party secured a landslide victory in Tamil Nadu's Erode East by-election with candidate V C Chandhirakumar defeating Naam Tamilar Katchi's M K Seethalakshmi by 91,558 votes. The high voter turnout of 67.97% and the boycott by AIADMK and BJP likely contributed to DMK's win. The by-election followed the death of Congress MLA EVKS Elangovan. This win is seen as a boost for DMK ahead of the 2026 Assembly elections.
