Arithmetic · working shown

  1. Third-placed BJP polled 23,760 votes, 8.4× the 2,843-vote margin.

    23,760 ÷ 2,843 = 8.4

  2. The top two polled 82.4% of votes; the other 5 candidates 17.1% between them.

    (61,907 + 59,064) ÷ 1,46,878 = 82.4% · 25,132 ÷ 1,46,878 = 17.1%

  3. Turnout of 80.6% was 1.2 pp above the state's median seat (79.4%).

    80.6 − 79.4 = +1.2

  4. The margin narrowed from 3.5 pp in 2021 to 1.9 pp.

    1.9 − 3.5 = −1.6 pp

  5. Adv. G. Steephen also won in 2021.

    2021 winner name = 2026 winner name
