To be clear, the Left Front doesn't exist in Bihar. In Bihar there is another platform, the United Left Bloc which was founded in 2009 (CPI(M)+CPI+CPI(ML) Liberation). ULB was sort of shelved in 2010, but there are occasional references to it in 2014 and 2015 elections. For CPI(ML) Liberation it's a very important distinction that they aren't part of the LF, since they are opposed to CPI(M) in West Bengal. See the interview with Dipankar Bhattacharya at [1] :
Will this new model of Left unity be replicated elsewhere?
I won't say it would be universally replicable. In states were the Left has been in the power, there are major policy difference among the Left parties. In West Bengal, over the whole question of land acquisition; in Kerala, there are issues over the party democracy. But by and large, this could be an ideal model for the Hindi-belt states.
This is not an extension of the Left Front of West Bengal. As of now, this is a Bihar-specific united left block.

We are not part of the Left front. The unity in Bihar was Bihar specific.
The sentence "Despite leading in the popular vote, the BJP was not the leading candidates in seat count due to the First Past the Post system" is misleading/wrong. JDU and RJD had less vote share beacuse they contested fewer seats, and that too seperately. Effectively 'Mahagathbandhan' was fighting as one party. The correct metric to use is vote share per seat contested, in which JDU and RJD are ahead (0.166 for JDU, 0.182 for RJD and 0.153 for BJP). I am removing it.
Assets Poonam Devi Yadav, who has been elected from Khagaria on a JD(U) ticket, is the richest among the MLAs with total assets worth over Rs 41 crore. The average assets per MLA elected this time is Rs 3.02 crore. In 2010, it was only Rs 82.46 lak
Age Altogether 127 (52.2%) MLAs have declared their age between 25 and 50 years while 116 (48%) are in 51- 80 years age group. Only 28 (11.5%) women have been elected this time against 33 (14.5%) out of 228 MLAs in 2010.[ [2]] Bschandrasgr ( talk) 16:56, 4 December 2015 (UTC)
