Arithmetic · working shown

  1. Third-placed INC polled 23,263 votes, 1.0× the 22,218-vote margin.

    23,263 ÷ 22,218 = 1.0

  2. The top two polled 80.2% of votes; the other 8 candidates 18.4% between them.

    (1,04,668 + 82,450) ÷ 2,33,203 = 80.2% · 42,846 ÷ 2,33,203 = 18.4%

  3. Turnout of 90.6% was 2.8 pp below the state's median seat (93.4%).

    90.6 − 93.4 = −2.8

  4. The margin widened from 6.1 pp in 2021 to 9.5 pp.

    9.5 − 6.1 = +3.4 pp

  5. BJP held the seat it won in 2021.
