Arithmetic · working shown

  1. Third-placed INC polled 1,44,322 votes, 6.8× the 21,371-vote margin.

    1,44,322 ÷ 21,371 = 6.8

  2. The top two polled 81.5% of votes; the other 6 candidates 17.0% between them.

    (4,16,415 + 3,95,044) ÷ 9,96,091 = 81.5% · 1,68,912 ÷ 9,96,091 = 17.0%

  3. Turnout of 74.4% was 1.2 pp below the state's median seat (75.6%).

    74.4 − 75.6 = −1.2

  4. The margin narrowed from 15.8 pp in 2019 to 2.1 pp.

    2.1 − 15.8 = −13.7 pp

  5. Achyutananda Samanta, the 2019 winner, finished second in 2024.

    2019 winner name = 2024 runner-up name
