NOTA Vote-share

Note: Numbers are as taken from ECI website; the site doesn’t list a party with ‘zero votes’ in its ‘Results’ section. So when a Party data isn’t there for a Constituency in ECI website, it’s not a straight-forward decision whether the party didn’t contest or contested but got zero votes - here I have considered only the Party-Constituency combinations with non-zero votes.
