Arithmetic · working shown

  1. The top two polled 89.4% of votes; the other 3 candidates 9.4% between them.

    (84,862 + 59,092) ÷ 1,60,934 = 89.4% · 15,125 ÷ 1,60,934 = 9.4%

  2. Turnout of 84.7% was 0.4 pp above the state's median seat (84.3%).

    84.7 − 84.3 = +0.4

  3. The margin widened from 12.7 pp in 2021 to 16.0 pp.

    16.0 − 12.7 = +3.3 pp

  4. The seat changed hands: BPF in 2021, BJP in 2026.
