Arithmetic · working shown

  1. The top two polled 85.2% of votes; the other 12 candidates 14.0% between them.

    (6,26,493 + 4,57,051) ÷ 12,71,796 = 85.2% · 1,78,168 ÷ 12,71,796 = 14.0%

  2. Turnout of 71.9% was 9.3 pp below the state's median seat (81.2%).

    71.9 − 81.2 = −9.3

  3. The margin widened from 8.5 pp in 2019 to 13.3 pp.

    13.3 − 8.5 = +4.8 pp

  4. Prasun Banerjee also won in 2019.
