A single ballot box served Asagikardesli at the 2023 parliamentary election, with 89 registered voters; that places it 46th among the 68 localities of Diyadin.
67 people voted at that election. Yeşil Sol Parti took the most votes with 40; AK Parti followed with 7. Its share here is close to the district average. In the presidential runoff, 50 of 62 valid votes went to Kemal Kılıçdaroğlu — 6.4 points above the district average. At the 2017 referendum 58 of 78 valid votes were 'no' — 6.2 points above the district average.
The tightest race came at the 2019 local election: HDP took 32 votes to AK Parti's 18 — a margin of just 14 votes. The neighborhood has stayed on the same line since 2014: the same political line has finished first in all of the last 7 elections (BDP in 2014, Yeşil Sol Parti in 2015, HDP in 2019, DEM Parti in 2024). The electorate shrank from 119 registered voters in 2011 to 89 in 2023 — a change of about 25 percent. Turnout at the 2024 local election was 50.0%, 17.0 points below the district average.
