Arithmetic · working shown

  1. Third-placed CPI(M) polled 1,05,411 votes, 19× the 5,567-vote margin.

    1,05,411 ÷ 5,567 = 18.9

  2. NOTA polled 19,132 votes, 3.4× the winning margin of 5,567.

    19,132 ÷ 5,567 = 3.4

  3. The top two polled 89.5% of votes; the other 5 candidates 9.3% between them.

    (6,80,130 + 6,74,563) ÷ 15,13,872 = 89.5% · 1,40,047 ÷ 15,13,872 = 9.3%

  4. Turnout of 86.3% was 5.1 pp above the state's median seat (81.2%).

    86.3 − 81.2 = +5.1

  5. The margin narrowed from 5.5 pp in 2019 to 0.4 pp.

    0.4 − 5.5 = −5.1 pp

  6. Khan Saumitra also won in 2019.

    2019 winner name = 2024 winner name
