Arithmetic · working shown

  1. Third-placed BJP polled 2,99,648 votes, 4.7× the 63,513-vote margin.

    2,99,648 ÷ 63,513 = 4.7

  2. The top two polled 70.4% of votes; the other 9 candidates 28.9% between them.

    (4,04,560 + 3,41,047) ÷ 10,58,703 = 70.4% · 3,05,731 ÷ 10,58,703 = 28.9%

  3. Turnout of 75.6% was 2.7 pp above the state's median seat (73.0%).

    75.6 − 73.0 = +2.7

  4. The margin widened from 1.0 pp in 2019 to 6.0 pp.

    6.0 − 1.0 = +5.0 pp

  5. The seat changed hands: CPI(M) in 2019, INC in 2024.

    2019 CPI(M) · 2024 INC
