  1. The top two polled 92.4% of votes; the other 10 candidates 7.1% between them.

    (5,76,037 + 4,38,087) ÷ 10,97,284 = 92.4% · 78,222 ÷ 10,97,284 = 7.1%
  2. Turnout of 69.8% matched the state's median seat.

    69.8 − 69.8 = 0.0
  3. The margin narrowed from 24.8 pp in 2019 to 12.6 pp.

    12.6 − 24.8 = −12.2 pp
