Arithmetic · working shown
  1. Third-placed CPI(M) polled 17,535 votes, 2.1× the 8,284-vote margin.

    17,535 ÷ 8,284 = 2.1
  2. The top two polled 89.6% of votes; the other 5 candidates 9.8% between them.

    (1,04,183 + 95,899) ÷ 2,23,246 = 89.6% · 21,893 ÷ 2,23,246 = 9.8%
  3. Turnout of 95.0% was 1.6 pp above the state's median seat (93.4%).

    95.0 − 93.4 = +1.6
  4. The margin narrowed from 9.7 pp in 2021 to 3.7 pp.

    3.7 − 9.7 = −6.0 pp
  5. Nabin Chandra Bag also won in 2021.
