Arithmetic · working shown

  1. Third-placed INC polled 4,568 votes, 1.1× the 4,089-vote margin.

    4,568 ÷ 4,089 = 1.1

  2. The top two polled 91.5% of votes; the other 21 candidates 8.5% between them.

    (30,088 + 25,999) ÷ 61,322 = 91.5% · 5,235 ÷ 61,322 = 8.5%

  3. Turnout of 56.5% was 4.3 pp below the state's median seat (60.8%).

    56.5 − 60.8 = −4.3

  4. The margin narrowed from 28.5 pp in 2020 to 6.7 pp.

    6.7 − 28.5 = −21.8 pp

  5. Arvind Kejriwal, the 2020 winner, finished second in 2025.

    2020 winner name = 2025 runner-up name
