Reading these numbers

A follower count measures messaging reach, not support. It says how many people opted in to receive that party’s broadcasts on WhatsApp, which depends as much on when the party started promoting its channel as on how popular it is. Anyone can follow a channel, from anywhere.

Every figure comes from the channel’s own public page and is dated. A party with no reading is listed as not ranked rather than shown as zero. More on the method.
